LOL, yep. It a bush with tires.

Interesting camo scheme. Was this a particular camo you were going for? Reminds me of one of RealTree's ones. PS: My 91's paintjob looks just like your "before", except my color is forest green. Scaly and looking like it has eczema.

Thx for the replies!

I got the idea watching this youtube vid:


Mine was simple.

I painted the whole Cherokee Hunter Green w/Rustoleum (2 cans) from Wal*Mart using a small roller.

Then I cut some clippings from a pine tree, rose, cedar, misc bushes, weeds & tall grass and used 4 different cans of spray paint, black, brown, beige, & primarily primer gray.

Just hold the clipping near the surface and lightly spray, then move on to different cuttings and colors.

Thx again for the kind words.

I'm working on my Yamaha 4-wheeler this long weekend to match.

Happy Labor Day, Wooddogg.

BTW, here's another pic of the hood.

Thank you guyz for the thumbs up!

I had the water pump replaced today and am happy to be cruisin the backroads in the Jeep again.

I'm going to keep a can of spraypaint under the rear seat in case I find some vegetation that isnt already in the paint scheme.

Later, Wooddogg.
