Changed it up a bit guys. Got rid of almost all the sand color and did the top properly. I redid the undercoating and then put camo on top of it.









The last one shows the only bit of sand color left on the jeep. I am going to pick up some more flats so I can take off all the satin paint so it won't have any shine.


Sorry for so few pics, this is from the phone

VERY glad you didnt paint your flare and handles to match. seen lots of people do that and it makes it look like a 10 min job. Nice work

even seen some people paint their tires......

Looks great!

If you would have left the tape around the window edges, everyone would think you have a special combat vehicle with bullet proof glass.

If you are trying to replicate the US Military's camo pattern, I highly suggest you get the patterns, and color choices from the horses mouth:

Official US Military public release (TB43-0147)


Merry Christmas

i am not trying to because their colors wouldn't be really applicable to where i live but that doesn't mean any one is not. it is good to be able to go straight to the technical bulletin though, thanks
