Doubling up to make up for lost time.
As far as I understand it the vest sculpt is actually based on a South African rig - the camo is German or Belgian, commonly found in Africa as post-war/post-colonial leftovers. The pants are Belgian congo pattern. The woman's camo is a bastardization of Belgian and German. Her camo was almost entirely painted with a toothbrush using the splatter technique. The vest camo was done using a sponge cut with lots of little holes to be a pattern stamp.

Amazing camo patterns.
I'll have to try the sponge technique. Do you use the sponge wet or dry? |

I used a dry sponge and undiluted paint so it would lay down paint in the pattern I wanted without running or smudging.
