Hey guys, anybody got a good idea of which Duracoat colors would best represent the Desert Camo pic attached?
I am trying to figure out which three colors to go with from Duracoat.
Attached is a pic of the desert camo I am referring to.

I was thinking #116 Multi Beige for the base, #11 Desert Beige for the second color, #89 Desert Warrior Tan for the last color. What to you guys think? Are these colors close?
I don't know what to go with for the action and barrel.

I really like the looks of the desert camo.

Any input is appreciated. Thanks, Josh

Josh,
For info the multi beige is extremely light, I used some for a little contrast on a pattern but it was way to light for me to run as a base.

Thanks for the heads up.
I am kind of trying to do a desert style/prairie thing.
I think the above camo job looks pretty damn nice, so that is what I was going to base mine off of.
I have used Duracoat in the past to paint my 10/22 and it turned out pretty good.
This time around I will actually have a descent air brush to use and it should go smoother than the first time.
Here's a pic of my 10/22 that I did ACU digital with Duracoat.

I sent Randy an email.
Thanks for letting me know who did the work.
I couldn't locate the thread where I found that pic.
I jumped over to Randy's site. He has some great looking builds.
Thanks
