If I still lived in NC I would probably go with these same patterns. Because I lack artistic skill and creativity. These are a couple of my spray can jobs using Krylon khaki and OD on the foliage patterns. OD, light green and brown on the sponge job. I've omitted green for brown and tan only on some guns.

I prefer a lighter color scheme, even in areas with dense green forests, like here in coastal NC.
Years ago, I lived in the wet side of Oregon, which had similar dense forests. I had a hunting buddy who had an unusual camo on his rifle for the area. Tans, browns, light green and a touch of red. When I first saw it, I thought it would stand out in the forest. But when we went in the forest, I saw the logic. The floor of the forest has a lot more tan, brown and reds than dark greens. It was much more effective than I expected. For my go-to SBR, I decided to imitate his camo. I have done a couple of my rifles this way now too.

It does seem a bit light. What colors and method did you use? I'm looking for ideas I'm in the Jacksonville area.

I'd add some green were I closer to the coast, but around me it's mostly clay and I haven't had any issues with this in the treeline. The dashes of earthy red help quite a bit when around pine straw. I'm also not a big hunter so don't take this as gospel

Those are some nice looking jobs. I spray a solid tan base and then stripe it with black, green and brown. It breaks up the shape.
