I love how you've kind of simulated an IBA/MTV type thing with their gear. The dick flap looks especially awesome lol

Like it alot as im doing a special forces IG army as well, only thing wrong is i think the lenses are too light blue for the rest of this dirty-er camo. Other than that i think it looks good!

The only thing I really see wrong is that the smily face on the scope cover should be upside down. Other than that, that stuff looks real good!

I will as soon as i fix my camera, but i understand i like to stick away from lenses for the most part other than that i usually keep it boltgun metal, washing it with badab black untill its nicely dark, some highlights with boltgun metal followed by small shine marks of mithril silver and sometimes a small veeerry small amount of water effects on the lenses might work but honestly it dosent always. But with this camo sceme i'd try using different shades of grey if you dont want that metal shine you know?

Alright, I gotta say. I Open this Thread and when I look at the first picture I thought, "What kind of Model is that?"

But now I know. Nice Job!
