:-) Here is a pic of my first attempt at a full camo paint job.  I used the HS camo kit . I cleaned all the metal real good with paint thinner then primed it with grey rustoleum primer before painting. Just make sure you cover anything you don't want painted and use your imagination. I painted over the stock 3 times before I got a pattern that I liked.

here's a 111 savage 7mm i did last year ,i used flat tan and brown and then put a few coats of flat poly over it . you can get the flat poly at most craft stores. i use real tree limbs , like a piece of a cedar limb .the 7mm was done with pine limb. i've done a bunch of different patterns on rifles and shotguns for friends. they will scratch up after a few years ,but i can redo one in 20minutes.

Here is a link to my humble attempts at a cammo pattern;

and the story behind it;

Really I needed to paint the stock as it was a "super saver" model and a cammo job seemed logical for a hunting rifle. I looked at some patterns and took some tape, leaf stencils and went to work. The Testor's Dullcoat rally set it off as now I have a flat glare free finish.
