I know what your thinking.
"Oh no, not ANOTHER Camo skin"

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.

I did

But then i got one off the internet and did a low-opacity layer over the top for a bit of variation.
EDIT: And to prevent flaming: Proof:

Well duh. But where is it on the texture?
Is it the long bit at the bottom of the texture?

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.

Thats a good skin...you should have changed the screen of the AR though.

also the bit with the flashlight should be black as well.

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.
