Thinking of doing a camo job

[Jthoss0837]

going to try to replicate snakeskin
Rifle is HiCapMag's
Anyone ever done this camo themselves? Ive heard its done by using laundry bag, or any netting, but i doubt you can achieve the results.
Ive already looked up tutorials, but they are all done by 12 year olds with airsoft guns. And theres no info on the hide, as far as i know
If anyone has any insight it would be appreciated

mesh laundry bag will do it. Just have it all planned out before you start. To get it to come out nice the netting can't move while the process is being done.

One of the reviews i read the guy used fishnet stockings.

I had a go on a junk stock, we gave the butt a coat of duracoat with a mesh onion bag over it and i looked good. What i did notice what how easy it was to pull the diamonds out of shape when you were contouring it to the stock. All i can suggest is you have a few practise runs first.

Hey mate,

If you want some ideas for this sort of camo, check out wilddog stocks website in Australia. They do a few different variations of this sort.

Alright man. I did some thinking and i think using cardboard to cover would make it easier to get the nice finish with different colors.

If you are going to do big areas its easier to make a template with blue masking tape and then do the differetn colours in coats. It will be different if you go for the scale look.
