Thanks all ya'll

Moritz I did it like this; It was already painted with gray primer so I masked with blu tac ,painted with black primer, masked again , painted with kahki, then again with olive.Then I peeled the masking.
The nice thing about using the blue tac is when you spray your color you can peel the edges up a little to get the tiny outlines around the colors. I have done it before on other projects.
Honestly though this was a total accident

The blu tac is old and kinda stiff and dosen't actually stick as well as it used to so as I painted it kinda curled up at the edges .
It was a happy accident.

If Putin and Chuck Norris approve, what could possibly go wrong?

Ah, the Bob Ross school of painting.

Too bad the Westland Commando already goes by the name "Junglie". With this camo, it would fit perfectly.

How many JMN's had a stroke as they walked by the tables?

Sorry I couldn't make it, but I was tubing in New Braunfels that morning.
