[ARCHIVED THREAD] - First attempt at paint

Well its not a full job, or camo job, but this is the first thing i've painted on my EBR so I wanted to whore it out a little

Really the only pic I have right now. The paint is the Krylon Camo series. I know some of you don't like the rattle can stuff but I'm not worried about it wearing/chipping. It'll add character to it

Looks good. I like the 2-tone rifle look. I have tan furniture on my rifle to get that look too. I've thought about painting the whole thing, but I like the contract.

Here's me "Black n Tan":

Thanks. A good color scheme and a good drink!

I've since moved the flashlight to the other side and the VFG forward so I can operate it with my thumb since I keep breaking pressure switches. I also sold the mini-red dot as I just couldn't get use to moving from a cheek weld to a chin weld. Plus once when doing some shooting in the desert, I was transitiioning from the scope to the red dot fired and the back of the scope smacked me in my nose good. LOL.

my first attempt... using krylon. I'm probably going to re-do it sometime here in the next week or so.

How is the Krylon holding up around the stock latch?
