Multicolored, yes. Camo, no. Original blue paint, rustoleum primer, and the original primer from where the paint is chipping Looks good though, rattle can or paint gun ?

Looks like how my dad painted a few gun stocks. He paints a base color, drops leaves and debris on it, sprays another color, rearranges the leaves/debris, sprays another color, etc. Looks good man. I'm a fan of 4 color camo myself. Black, green, gray, brown.
