Well, with that particular rifle if you notice the upper and lower are painted differently, because I painted it with the shorter upper on it.
For the lower I (excluding the pistol grip which is basically the same thing minus step 2) started with a coat of tan, after simply masking off the magwell. I then took a plain sheet of paper, and cut a wavy pattern down one side. Painting streight down that line produces a line with a soft faded edge on one side, and a hard wavy edge on the other. I then used a set of orange holders to make the dot pattern. Lines were done with brown, the dots brown and green.
The upper reciever I had to mask off underneath as I was painting it seperatly. For it I just started with tan, and laid several stripes of grass across it in different angles. Through on some greens, grey and a little mist of black.
I can do a how-to thread with step by step pictures if you'd like
