has anyone done a camouflage paintjob?
I'm considering doing it to my beetle
wahts the easiest way to do it? lay down the main colour first then spray the other coulours over it
or just spray the individual sections?

Dunno about the easiest way, but yeah - that's the normal way that say Army would do it - base colour, then the other colours over the top. Also
it's usually done so the splotches get smaller with each colour, so for a 3 colour job with brown, black and green the brown splotches were painted
over the top of black splotches, which were painted on top of the green base. Means that the finish isn't exactly smooth.
I guess depends too on what sort of look you want - if you want a historic style like the Wehrmacht used to have on Kubel's and stuff it'd pay to
get a few Military Modelling magazines or similar to use as reference.
i had a wedge T25 double cab in the uk, it was olive green with matt black patches, over the full rear end i sprayed a rough vw logo, if you looked it was there, but to joe public it was a buch of black patches!!
I did one on Simon's bus a few years back. Did alot of research and there is a method to what seems like random shapes/patterns. Protec supply the
paint to the forces so we got it straight from there.
I painted the sand color first> green then black.
