I like desert style camo. The tan and brown blends outdoors especially in the fall and winter.

Go get a military vehicle magazine. They sell genuine reproduction camo colors and patterns. The camo krylon rattle can is fine, but if you're wanting to do it right, get the military magazines.

This will get you started. I looked for mil-spec paint. I found what I was looking for, check out several of the links in that post. I hope you have deep pockets...
