I like RCB's concept. It may be a little 90's-ish but I like it.

Here's what I have of the digital camo pattern. I'm starting to get lazy with it, but it's at least enough to get the gist of what I'm going for. The end result I was thinking of it being "shades" of black.
Scallops:
....and one more. For this one, I'm thinking probably coming down at a straight line (in line with the edge of the fender) until I come in line with the top of the paint on the back fender.
Just did this, tried blending with a similar fender design in front as in back, but still painting the back lower fender and kicker panel.
The only conclusion I can possibly draw from this "experiment" is that white/silver don't mix well. I'm thinking I should (*squirms*) just put some time into painting the whole thing matte silver...

Im a Solider Myself and i personally hate the ACU digital camo that we use now. Keep it up to date. We will be soon changing uniforms again to this.

Grab some paint and have a great time, this was a family paint job , a different can for each person and I worked the bar bq . Alot of fun and don't look half bad and touch up is quick and simple.

Stromvader- haha thanks! I have a pretty boring job... So when I saw this post, I couldnt resist! I had nothing better to do! =) Thanks!...
I myself am planning on painting my Jeep either a flat black, drk grey or a forest green... not too sure which one. Of course this is after I ding up my nice pretty stock red paint job! =)
Its always nice to just be able to carry a spray can with you, you get a ding, you shoot a little primer and your good to go!
