So I've been pretty bored lately due to weather, things breaking, and lack of day light after work 

I did some thread searching and i was surprised there wasn't a "How-To" for camouflaging a car.
I decided to start one  but i have no idea where to start, I've never done it.

I was thinking maybe with every ones input this could become a good thread for everyone

Happy Posting

ha, that camo is so good I can't even see the vehicle!

Just a reminder, the part of the forum this thread was originally posted in "Build Diaries, How-To, DIY" is for people that have done a project and want to communicate specific details of that project to the rest of the group.

thats right but it seems no one has input 

Are you trying to paint cammo on or do you want to just go vinyl?  These days you can buy a cammo wrap and just stick it on.

Painting gets a bit more interesting. 

The real trees HD vinyl camo is so sweet. Looks so real! That stuff is pretty tuff also.

it's all your design. i picked up an old bedframe from a customer for my son and asked him what color he wanted it, he said camo! so we bought some bright blue, light grey and dark grey spray paint and just went for it. it turned out sweet. look at it this way... if you dont like it, just go get some more paint!!

Just remember to start out by doing a basecoat of the lightest color you want to use (say Tan or OD green), then start designing different blotches with the darker colors (Browns and Black). I've done some pretty sweet looking camo designs (With weeds, leaves, and branches) to a couple of my buddies duck hunting boats. Turned out really good, and how I described for you to do it was how I started out.

ok cool im army green now so im going to have to do darker colors.

this god damn rain just keeps coming every time i have a free day 

3 cans olive green 3 cans tan 3 cans flat black      rattle can

i took some 1000 grit and scuffed the paint up    then i went out and yanked me some tree limbs off


painted the whole sidekick olive green   then i took my limbs w/leaves  and just randomly held them on the sidekick while spraying my "highlight colors"


best i can do  for pics 

wow them pics suck   ill try and get some more tomorrow  itll still be dirty(washing its a sin) but better camera   

it breaks up really nice 

Well, camouflage is all about the environnement.  If you are in snow, paint it white, in mud a good brown/green is fine...

But what if you are in the middle of a psychedelic LSD-induced dream? 

THIS!
