I'm sure this has been asked a hundred times, but does anyone have a recommendation for which spray paint (or combo) best matches the old 82-84ish OD green used for RAH vehicles (e.g., Mountain Howitzer, MMS, Watch Tower, etc.).
I'm customizing a PTE Combat Helicopter, and haven't found the right green just yet. PS: looking for spray paint can colors, not airbrush paints. Thanks. |

Krylon camouflage made with Fusion: Ultra Flat Olive. Best one I've found and doesn't take too many coats either.

There is a darker olive green under the krylon fusion brand camo paint. I happen to use it on the interior.

Also take a look at Italian Olive from Krylon. It's a nice medium military type of green.

Thanks all. Ended up using Rustoleum Camo (forest green) ultra flat. Wal-mart was out of all the Krylon camo.
Worked like a charm. I'll post some pics of the combat chopper soon, and also the BT Bradley I just snagged at Target (I'm seeing less and less of these, so I finally snagged one over the weekend). |
