Hi guys, I have a Timiya Motercycle and orderly set which I want to include in my dio, the problem I'm having is painting the smock for the rider.........And I'm not to happy with the results.
I need to re-create the Spring pattern to fit with the timeline of my dio.......
Did anyone have this problem and how did they overcome it?
Thanks in advance..............

Hey Long,
I have the same kit here on the shelf. I used this as reference ( http://pacificcoast.net/~gmax/uniforms/sscamoflage.htm ). Check about 3/4 s of the way down the page.
I started with the brown, then added the larger dark green areas. On top of that, I used the lighter green, and then went around filling in various "dots". Make sure you thin your paint as it cn build up in thickness quickly if you aren't careful. Good luck!
