[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 194930, member: 2011"] Lots of stencils are used. It takes a lot of patience and a sharp exacto knife to cut them out. Getting the right material is also a tedious. It isn't a simple first timers task. At least that's what I think. I've been messing with the airbrush, nozzles, and paints for awhile now but can't seem to settle on a pattern. So far, I've figured that the stock would be painted with the largest area covering color (base). No stencil. Then a stencil covering the next largest area of color and so on until you get it the way you wish. Google on duracoat for some good patterns. Planning ahead is a real plus. Practice on the wife's fridge is also recommended before tackling something really valuable like your rifle.:D [/QUOTE]
