    Cheers Gells just what I am looking for, that kind of info like I said the back is a tester, so you'd go more of the green in general ? or do you mean bigger swirls of it ?
    Tnaks mate

    The green can be much larger Steve.
    As Gells said, the green and brown are the prominent colours.(y)

    Had another dabble at the DPM I'm only using the outlined area for now to get the look right, as it will be covered over completely on the assembled figure. As ever all comments welcome, after taking the advice on board think it looks better now, but open to change

    Hi Steve,
    looking well mate. For what my humble opinion is worth don't be afraid to let the brown swirls overlap the green as they seem to be a little separated (if that make sense) it always looks to me when they make the uniforms that the green is laid onto the base colour then the brown is laid onto that then the black on top. Cant wait to see this finished

    cheers

    Cheers John I think I may need to make the brown bigger or bite the bullet and try it on bit that's made to be shown and isn't broken up with locating slots etc and see how it looks

    But what I know about DPM can be written on a shirt button.
    All the best,

    Okay crunch time bit the bullet and have done the jacket, to me it looks ok but there are far better/more experienced painters on here who can judge it better than I can so what you think folks ? A lot of the rear will be hidden as you can see hence why it was the tester

    He (you I guess) is really shaping up into a great piece Steve.
    Comparing your camo' to other examples I have seen you are right on the money.
    Good work mate, your brushwork has come on in leaps and bounds.
