Chili's Mav, Not Steampunk

I used basic Rustoleum camo paints. The base color is obviously, tan. I don't know if you can see but I used 2 different "stripe" colors. These consist of forest green and what looks like black, but it's actually a bit lighter.<--forgot name of. The priming handle, turret, and triger are all the forest green color to give an offset to the base, tan. Of course this gun has a few clear coats to protect the paint too. The only mods that have been done to this gun is the Russian Roulette mod and putting 2 pennies behind the spring. Later today or tommarow I'll probably make a vid on youtube showing the gun. As well as puting this sucker on ebay. Look for more mav's and other guns painted/modded by me with the same kind of style as I need some dough.
These pictures aren't in the best quality, but when I put it up on ebay I'll use an actual digital camera.
Any comments?

Analogkid: How many pennies would you reccomend? I wasn't sure and didn't want to put to much. The rustoleum paints work VERY well for me, although the silver/ mettalic blue leave a gritty feel. The camo ones with the clear coat leave the paint really smooth. Also, the clear coat is in the same aisle as the paint. I use rustoleum paint as well as rustoleum clear coat.
I'll get a pic of the 3 cans and the spray paint I'll use in a bit.
Here's the paint I used:

Both mine have 5 pennies, which works fine, I've had them like that a while and they haven't broken. I have to go pick up some paint sometime soon to paint my new BBB. Thanks.Analogkid: How many pennies would you reccomend? I wasn't sure and didn't want to put to much.

Mice job but i wouldn't say it looks like tiger though. But good job none the less.
Mice job, you say, what's that?
Chili, it's a clean paintjob, but it isn't exactly tiger camo and the masking tape outling is pretty obvious. Good job!
