Vehicles when new were supplied in green only and had the black put on in service. Sometimes this could take several years (or never) to get done!
Hope this helps.

Yep, it was 100% black all over.
It look's like this now......dont laugh, it was my first ever camo paint job  :lol: 

Disco Matt:
Looks good to me - freehand with a brush or did you mask and spray it?

stratie:
Big brush and two pots of paint.
Bish bosh bish bosh and on it went  :D

Disco Matt:
Seems to work just as well on a full size vehicle as it did when I last built a plastic kit!  :lol:

I suspect that actually trying to mask and spray camo paint would look worse than a careful brush job, getting a smooth curve is a lot easier freehand. Plus as others have said it's how the Army did it.

stratie:
I put alot of work into it, i reckon i must of spent all of 20 minutes painting the camo job  :lol:
I was going to do it in white,black,grey camo. But i didn't know where to start?
