what did you use to paint it?
I went the "El-Cheapo" route and just sprayed the Krylon camo from the can into the small glass pot on the air-brush 
- it worked great, the paint sprayed very easily and even with the cheap air-brush there was a surprisingly wide amount of control of the spray pattern. The flaws you can see in the paint job were from me not keeping a consistant distance or speed while spraying.
For $10-$15 (available at Kambodian Tire or House of Fools) I recommend picking one up just to play around with.

I bought a can of it to spray a ruck frame, and I love it, spray it on everything. It even did a decent job of staying on my beater field watch.
Good paint job. It's not easy getting the right paint/thinner consistency. Did you use model acrylic enamel on it or something else? I've used an airbrush for painting models for years. If you find the finish too shiny, try some layers of dullcote.
