I've done all of mine in various colors, using the Army's M1008/1009 patterns.

I apparently need to re-upload the patterns to my Gallery here, but they're in the CUCV tech manual linked in there somewhere...

how do you go about painting the truck with the pattern tho? mask off the part and do one color at a time or what? im considering camo, or straight forest green. im only hesitating on camo because im afraid it wont turn out good.

I'm wanting to do a tri-color tiger stripe. Mostly a OD background w/ maybe 25% tan and 5% black. I don't know how to get the pattern to come out right though... mask it off or what?
