The paints came well packaged with no leaks or breaks. It consisted of 7 pots, 3 shades of green, 3 shades of brown and a black. The black ink was for the consumer to mix their own colours if needed. To apply the paint, I began using a paint brush but found out I needed to use the colours in bigger quantities so I used some sponge which also helped give some different effects when painting. 

Before I started adding the paint, I wrapped my RIF in Tan Scapa Tape. This was recommended to me as I didn't want to paint directly onto the RIF, it gave a good base colour and absorbed the paint well.

I began by applying the browns first and then the greens. When I first did this, I was not using the same colour in a large quantity. You can see by the image below of my MK23 suppressor that this wasn't too effective. I consulted Staten who advised me to use the paints in larger blocks. He was really helpful in giving advise on how to apply the paint to it's maximum effect and decided that for the future, he may release a tutorial video on how to camouflage your RIF.

These were the small pots and left me with just enough to add some to my sniper as well as my pistol. I'd recommend getting the larger pack if you plan on doing more than one RIF so you have plenty of paint to play with. 

The colours worked really well for me and if I'd had enough paint to mix, I would've made a darker brown to cover up more of the Scapa Tape as for the sites I attend, too much of that tan colour didn't blend very well. But every environment is different in colour so having that black paint to mix your own shades is really helpful. 



Overall, I'm really pleased with the outcome of how my RIF looks. I'm looking forward to seeing a tutorial video to show how Staten himself creates it.
