Brush strokes can be seen on my helmet, so, that's all right :P

You and the guy behind you could improve things by fastening the ammo pouches? :P

If we talking about a paintjob in the field,alot is possible....brush strokes with or without zimmerit,sawdust,sand etc.

If we would like a factory paint finish it's just the paint with aluminum texture...

The best repro is an original...
