Nice Job, Lewin, it looks great! It even covers up all the duct tape holding it together! Did you just get three cans of krylon paint and spray it on?

Yeah all you have to do is spray on the light and then do some kind of pattern with green and brown. I'm doing my M4 and wasp mask today

if the black part of the stock is metal/plastic, id paint it in the tan, but if its that odd sort of foam, then dont (my oppinion)
btw thats pretty sweet though,( id do all the mags too)
did you strip the gun to do it?? or just put tape onn it?

Those are really good Will  I'm not a fan of the FAMAS myself but that's a fantastic job. That should work well in the woods and in urban areas. I've been looking at a lot of topics concerning gun painting/camouflaging recently on Arnies/ASCUK and elsewhere, and yours would easily stand up very well ( better in many cases) alongside most of them, even some of the (so-called) professional ones. Take a look at the examples on Airsoft Scotland's (Airsoftworld) site, for their gun painting service, and you'll see what I mean. People would pay for work like that. I like Henry's L96 too, the main reason I've been looking at painting topics is because I want to do my L96 soon, and Henry's is one of the nicest I've seen. I'd just go a little darker with the green. You should also do the mag(s) for the M4. |

I would recomend doing you own as it is not very hard. The main tip I would say is make sure you apply paint in very thin coats to eliminate shine. the only cost is the paint (I got 3 cans for arround £17 off airsoft Scotland) and it is worth it as you can paint anything you own. I have now done my wasp mask too.
