I do my MC's with rattlecans 😂 https://www.patreon.com/user?u=45254178 . I liked the 6colour chocChip. I assume for some parts in AZ and SW real good. like north africa maybe not so much.

Where did you get the dummy selector and connector rod?

I was thinking much the same, but don't forget, Ian's working from post-incident artwork and historical reports, so it may have been easier to just lay down the khaki and go back to add the little bit of brown. Doing a modern paint job one would be painting the partially masked action in situ, so that the barrel wouldn't give the whole game away, etc. Agree that either choc-chip or 3cD would be quite attractive, in an "evades the eye" kind of way... 😁

would be sick in chocolate chip or 3 colour desert (shield/storm) stuff. USGI TLBV is 556 so that won' t fit 762 mags but would look the part, so LC-2. next FINNISH brutality as there is so much arid desert up there? kidding.

Guido Schriewer

get the idea and LOVE rattlecan painting but why the FDE? stock was already brownish. would have masktaped some stripes of "worn edge" tape and do the sandish colour. some rough grid sandpaper strokes and "battleworn". maybe first watch https://www.patreon.com/posts/paint-your-ar15-37563077 COOL rifle. shortcommings or not I just like the 14.
