My last paint job looked like shit so I did a "do-over."  I was going for an urban kryptek kinda style. Let me know what you guys think!  I would appreciate it!  Thanks!

I think it looks awesome.  Have you considered doing all the black parts to match?

I used a good old rattle can (rust oleum) and some stencils.  I did a base coat in black, put the stencils on, sprayed it with a light grey primer color, than striped of a tiny bit of white and a little more grey.  Than I got a flat clear coat (Krylon) and did two coats of that.  Thanks for the response!  Let me know if you have any other questions!

I did.  I painted a mag just to see what it would look like, but I like the accesories black better. Didn't really care for the matched color mag at least.

Your rear sight is on backwards

Looks awesome for a rustoleum job though

That looks really good.  Nice job.

That looks fantastic!   I think I would leave some of the furniture black like you have it - gives good contrast. The kryptek type patterns look really good on ARs...

That re-do is an upgrade for sure.

Here's the "old job" I didn't paint it with the upper and lower together, didn't have enough stencils.  Thought it looked o..k..., but the redo looks a lot better.
Again, thanks for the comments!
