looks great guys !!! how did you do the camouflage patern ?

@Soitra - I'm liking the mesh effect. nice work

@Chimera400 - Its just brush painted on. Black undercoat/primer layer and then a grey disruptive pattern overlaid with the white. I tried to do the white in one go back when I did these, which I would definately do differently now, but its not too bad over the grey and black.
