Laurie, that texture is looking good.

As for the node setup, it was done by odf, not me. :)

I have been seeking advice from bagginsbill on how to do that stuff being as I'm a newbie to it.
His advice has helped and now I know how to do my M4 texture in a darker shade too.

Let me introduce you to my multiple personalities. :)
