| Hey guys. I am debating what pattern to use. I plan to use it for predator hunting. We experience all four seasons where I live so I need a pattern that will work fairly well in greens browns etc. Any suggestions or thoughts? Pics of what worked for you are always appreciated! |

Thanks for all the responses! I was honestly thinking about multicam or at least a similar color scheme. It seems to work real well around here. Has anyone done the multicam tutorial? Was it hard to do? Did you like how it turned out? If you are looking for a camo to blend well, you can follow the formula that makes multicam work so well, without having to put in the time to "reproduce" a certain pattern. Use enough darks AND lights for good contrast and make sure your pattern is mostly browns. Most people get caught up with browns and greens and forget about the black and off-white in their camo. A camo without the natural dark and light spots is a quick give away. The rifles already posted are great examples of this. If you want to reproduce multicam, I would advise getting an airbrush and freehand the small curved shapes of multicam. With a small enough pattern, you won't need stencils. Start with the more abundant background colors and layer on the smaller patches. |

Was it hard to do? Did you like how it turned out? Mine was Multicam inspired. I call it Rattlecam 2.0 I used a Multicam BDU top to free hand my stencils. I just used basic Rustoleum camo spray paint. The colors don't really match Multicam. I think that the Aervoe brand paints have a more "milspec" color selection. It won't be easy to get a perfect Multicam spray paint job, but if you look at the pattern you can pick it apart into the base and the top layers or the stenciled part, and you can kind of see what needs to be done to achieve it. I just painted an old air rifle about 3 different times to get the look I wanted before I did my AR. ETA here it is with my MC chest rig
