Camo patterns?

Not sure if this would be the right section but gear discussion seems appropriate... Im looking for stencils that can be printed out... copied or anything like that... also suggestions on paint that should be used.

Cheers!

Best thing I heard was just cutting bits of regional foliage and using those as stencils.

Like Danke said, foliage...just go into your yard or local park and grab some ferns or pine branches or leaves...lay them over your rifle and spray away. It's cheap as feck

As for paint, Krylon Camoflage series is a good old stand by, but if you have a hobby shop nearby, they should have some options and better selection of colors (Tamiya?).

Yeah I always wonder if Tamiya would work on metal parts but I guess it would, Do you have experience trying it out? plus their colour pallette is pretty extensive.

I tried it, and while it sticks well to both metal and plastic (obviously), it wasn't very scratch resistant... so you'd better find a good clear coat with it.
