Just out of curiosity, how does the pattern match up/blend when the turret is rotated ?
Thanks Herman!

Dots are not as hard as it looks. 2 tricks, I use my 50/50 paint that I used to airbrush and 2, micro brushes. These are little plastic brushes with a little fuzzy end. Simply dip in paint, touch on papertowel to take off access and it does about 4 to 6 dots before repeat.

I am just mounting the ball bearings for turret rotation so will take some pics or video of rotation once assembled tonight so you can see the camo in different positions... :D

Here is my turret with ball bearings test as well as an idea of how well this camo works when you rotate the turret. Also gave the smoker a test at the same time... Still a couple of bugs to work out on the lighting...
