multicam painted M4
« on: March 26, 2005, 02:28:22 AM »
Here it is my project gun painted! I am still waiting on my Vltor stock.


I tried to get a nice multicam fade but could not match up the colors as well as I would have liked to. For those gear nuts here is the low down on the parts:
Guarder aluminum metal body

systema metal bits
guarder metal trigger
magpul enhanced trigger guard
classic army RIS foregrip
magpul rail guards
tango down foregrip
g&p enhanced hand grip
promethius selector plate
systema hop up
guarder bucking
OK 6.03mm tight bore barrel
9.6V 2500mah nimh batteries, thx gonzo
K2 metal pin set
pdi 170 spring
guarder piston
systema piston head
systema oiless bushings
magpul grips
TM stock with SOE pad (waiting for Vltor)
ITS Peq
I did not paint the handguards they were molded in OD

Thats a very nice paint job.  A lot of detail went into that.  Can't wait to see it at a game!

I saw this beast today and I must say that I was pleased!  Very nice color selection, and very good execution on the MultiCam theme!  Not a spot-on match, but rather inspired by MultiCam.  It blended well with pretty much every type of foliage at BT, and the outline was successfully broken-up.

Very, very nice job David!

By the way, what type of paint did you use?

I wish I could have found the right color of paint to use especially the shades of yellowish green, but the only way I could have gotten them is by using a non-flat paint and then messing with it to flatten it up. But like you said a pattern inspired by multicam and not a copy. I used the Krylon Ultra Flat camoflage paint in the rattle-can colors: brown, green (OD) and khaki.

Thanks! but now that I made an attempt at making a multicam-esk paintjob they are going to be all the rage and someone will inevitably make a better one than I did. I hope that this has inspired some people to think about fun ways to paint their guns and not just go with the "let me throw some diagonal lines of green or tan across my mp5/m4".

Thats something to think about when painting a gun. However, I own mostly AK's now and I dont think they would look very good painted.  8)  However, that is the best looking painted gun I have ever seen. Props out to you again.
