In the next update,we should be able to make custom skins for everything.Some people make skins for camouflage,but what's the point if you have guns like the laser or Rambo rifle?They'd give you away instantly.
 
Actually, the appearance of skins for weapons for use as camouflage sounds more like something that players below lv. 13 could really benefit from. When you get past that threshold, there's literally no hiding from players (unless you station yourself inside a house in Christmas Town).
However, I can understand what you mean. Many players would enjoy being able to color weapons with designs and logos and such. Yet, imagine the ability to create skins for guns , while considering that some texture models for weapons like the Automatic Peacemaker are so complex that many players would hardly use them.
Now, I'm pretty sure Rilisoft would be more likely to make buyable skins for a small number of weapons like the Pixel Gun, Combat Knife, and other weapons with simple game models, which would basically consist of "2 by 2" or "4 by 4" sized blocks with pixels reminiscent of checkboard patterns. Basically this-

-repeated throughout the skin of the weapon of their choosing.
Unfortunately, the programing needed for that would be quite large, and that's what worries me the most. At the moment, I believe Rilisoft should go for "low hanging fruit" and fix up the Friends System before they attempt something large like implementing color options for many weapons.

Basically the large program would be quite power draining
 
Yes, that's basically what I meant. It's not worth it for the time being.
Yes, but if we just wait a bit for them to work on in, then maybe they will find some sort of way for it to use less power, and honestly, I think that a lot of people would use it. Though it is time consuming, I think it will be a unique touch to the game, and also will still help with camouflage. On nuclear city, I made a skin of the maniquinne (sorry if I misspelled that), held the standard beginning knife, and I trumpt majority of the lobby.
 
I suggest making an option to hide accessories while gaining their effects. They cover more than 70% of my skin and look ugly with many skins (especially those whose eyes are really high or at the sides). And also for the custom cape, you should be able to wear it for appearance while gaining the effects of other capes like storm trooper or sniper cape if you own it already.
