Hi, I hope someone here has the answer to this one because Ive searched nearly everywhere and haven`t found one.
Do I paint it in a digital pattern, if so what paints or should I plan on buying 1/35 camo decals of desert marpat?
If anyone could help I`d love some advice.
Thanks.
Dan.

Hi again,
using the link in the previous post, and the blog by Alpine's figure painter (which I cannot find right now), I'm using Tamiya enamels, for a slower drying time, thinned out somewhat.
Pick the colours that seem the closest, adjust for scale, and knock yourself out. I'm finishing an Assault gunner from Ant Miniatures in multi-cam, and lovin' it. So, nothing is too difficult.
Post progress shots of your, I'd be interested to see how you go.

You don't have too look that far. Right here on Armorama we have a bunch of camo uniform painting tutorials.
These one should point you in the right direction:

Painting MARPAT 2

Hay, thanks for the links, I'd not seen those here!
"Post progress shots of your, I'd be interested to see how you go", jeez, what was I thinking? Your build, please... what sort of hurry was I in?

I have those Airborne Miniatures Dev Gru figures on the way. Can anyone list the actual colours for the AOR1 camo?
