May 16, 2007 4:11am
Im buying a cheepo little 50$ wannabee aeg just to practice painting before im ready to paint my real aeg's. What im going for is dessert camo so im gonna get yellow,tan,little orange and a little brown. Im gonna get leaves from the area(mostally shrubs) and use those a stencil. Anyone got any better ideas?

Something to think about too - if you have a scope, paint the lens'. It reduces glare, therefore making you harder to spot.
