not bad. try to make it not just a texture that you found on the internet. make a texture yourself, that flows with the contours of the rifle.

But then i got one off the internet and did a low-opacity layer over the top for a bit of variation.

this is probably one of the better camo skins out there. i tend to stay away from camo now a days, mainly because i had my camo session with the pelicans. but yeah nice work on this.

if you gave the gun more depth as far as shading and highlights this would own. id love to see a camo hog from you one day.

you export the bitmap through HMT, then edit it, then inject it back into the map. also try not bumping so much.
