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...

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...
