Automotive paints for the camo? Wow, they are a super match for the NATO colors, they look really good. Superb work.

Thank you Karl!

The best thing when you use automotive paints is you need to mix your own colors. Is a hobby within a hobby.

Cheers!

Hi guys!

Thank you!

The worst part is: I do not know the basic colors rate to make new paints

This particular model has the second-place prize of the best camo in IPMS Brasil 2013, much of this because the colors.

Cheers!

Very nice.

The camouflage three tones is not often viewed on UN military vehicles.
