Building Aks74u prop, do these scratches look realistic to a battle scared gun?

Corner wear is very good, but the flat sides of the reciever are a little clean. Could use some randomized wear there

Thanks :D
looks alright. safety label is kind of silly and the paint itself is a bit matte, but that seems to be something all airshit has. maybe go over the mag with an oily rag, looks too clean and fresh out of the box
Here are some images to reference:

if you think the prop can structurally handle it, kick it around in the sand/dirt and rub it off
>>32728722
Get your hands dirty and give the fore end a have job, the wrap is too clean
>>32728722
Get some watered down black paint and use a rag or towel to rub it on the mag, then wipe off the excess. It'll make it look more like a used bakelite mag instead of orange plastic. Also dirty up that wrap and maybe kick it around some sand and gravel a bit.

not all aks are afghan beaters, the biggest thing is the "WARNING" on the side, mask/remove it and i think you'd be good to go.
>>32728722
should have some Cyrillic shit scratched into the mag, and have the bottom of the grip chewed up a little
How about now? I'll do something to the magazine next
why the fuck dont you remove the warning sticker you stupid fucking isiot?

>fucking isiot

I think the only idiot here is you.

looks passable
i'd skip on that foregrip camo, cover up the airsoft warning and replace the grip if possible (or just chew it up).

>Literally just looks like someone sanded it
That's what you did, isn't it? If you want realistic looking scratches, actually scratch it up. Throw it in some dirt, toss it around. Hand-made intentional wear looks stupid as shit.
If you want wear it cant be bright i needs to look dull as if its oxidized over time.
