How to paint camo 

I almost like it better before the black better, I know the black gives it the depth to get the 3D look but the first 2 colors worked very well together. It's harder to do on a small piece because you have to use more black or it won't look the same, on a bigger project you can use less black and really get the depth/3D look to pop. It's all about depth perception.

this is the 75th video I watched on how to spray paint on something.. I noticed that it doesn't matter if you've done such a great job or not.. people would always leave negative comments.. I don't know if they can do something better or just jealous.. anyways, great job man

This was actually a very straightforward video, so I really appreciate that!

Thank you very much for this video. I repainted my Kawasaki Versys 650 using your advice and I’m very happy with the results!

I think it looks good. Thanks for for teaching me about camo. I think I'm gonna to try this with silver, blue and black and some naked branches for a lightning effect. Then I'm going to clear coat it. Thanks for the idea

Great work. I'm gonna try this approach for painting my next electric guitar. :)

Good job! I like the depth. Thanks for sharing.

I get the job done because of your video, you are my inspiration. Thankyou.

I stumbled upon your video by accident and I must say I'm impressed. Would have loved to see the finished product after it dried. It looks great. Going to try it on some accents on my truck with some clear coat. Thanks for the vid.

We have painted four complete trucks using a similar technique,the result is awesome, especially if you use multiple colours its vital to have the black on last because it adds depth to the entire job and the 3d effect . Another trick is to use gloss colours for the base colours, and flat black over everything, the gloss colours pop under the flat colour and creates a definite 3D effect all flat colours just blend into eachother and you dont get the same effect. We just finished a jeep cherokee in pink and purple camo it looks pretty good. From beginning to end including sanding prep a bit of body work and masking, the entire truck took about 36 hours

You should spray the helmet green then paint it with the tan using the foliage. That way the foliage will be green with a tan background rather than tan foliage with green background.

THIS IS SERIOUSLY ONE OF THE BEST CAMO PAINT JOBS NEVER THOUGHT OF IT BUT GREAT JOB AND KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK MAN

Love the texture and the way it turned out man! Thanks for the video.

the black really makes the pattern pop out! stunning result with such an easy technique! awesome man!

Mad paint skills. That's the baddest paintjob I've seen yet. It look dimensional, highlights really pop. Awesome, awesome job.

Nice. Looks very cool. Gave me ideas for my reptile enclosures.

Looks great! I have a Jeep I have been thinking of doing something similar on.

NOW THEY CAN OFFICIALLY TELL THE POLICE "I DIDN'T SEE HIM" LMFAO! :D

The pattern reminds me of capillaries and veins. You should do one with a bright red base, and shoot over it in black. Thanks for sharing.

Thought it looked better before the black. But still cool. I love the cedar branches look

Beautiful paint job. Been browsing ideas for my AR and I had really wanted to go with a kryptek or urban pattern but this just stands out so beautiful. Might have to try it but with a base coat of white and then greys blacks and maybe even a Navy blue.

Thought I was gonna hate this,but bloody brilliant

Love this! Thank you for making this! I have been trying to find a video for months for real tree camo idea for painting my walls, I obviously won't be using spray paint, but using a sponge.

are you able to see through when you put the helmet on

Ive seen similar but this is a very good video and simple to do thanks to this guide.. I plan to do my bike fairings.. Will be interesting, as long as i dont get nicked for stealing my neighbors bushes.. Keep watching the news 'derbyshire man in his 40's steals neighbors bush!' Now where did i put that balaclava? Hmm 🤔 😜🤣. Thank you for this.. Much appreciated.

Dude that's so awesome. Very creative. I'm tripping out. Good job.👍

looks good, you didn't even need the black

Looks very nice

That is beautiful! Painting that pattern on clothing would also look great.

PS, the idea of leaving some of the pattern along the top of the visor is smart. I’ve always used a strip of electrical tape across the top for those days when you’re riding into the sun, but your idea is much better and more creative.

That Bush Tho..... great job man...

looks like what i did on my rifle. i did sand, brown, and black came out pretty good. Funny we used the same bush leaves and i just seen this video now.

Damn thing looks awesome. I would have never thought to use a leaf for the texture. Awesome job.

For better camo spray your dark color first then use your pattern and spray your lighter colors. Look at the color of the plant your using to judge what color goes down first. Dark color should always go down first.

I have a miny bike I didn't want to spend a lot of time doing a bunch of body work.I did but not as much and it turned out great thanks.that orbervidus tree branches makes cool camo.thanks.

Sounds like the birds are planing to build a nest!! thank you sir for helping out our nature!

I love the birds in the background.

Don't forget that ORANGE VEST!

This looks like the Western red cedar I have all over, or something close. This is pretty cool but I'm going to start with that leafy green color 1st, and lay down different leaves all over at once so I don't have to move them all around...I'm thinking cedar, plus ferns, bramble leaves & a couple others plus branches.

the branch is cedar, the job is beautiful. very cool.

Looks amazing dude

I like the tan & green better !!!!!! 😕😕😕😕maybe just me !!!!!!

Nice. You might try to use varying basecoats, black, green ,light gray, dark gray and tan. Then use the same technique with contrasting layers.

Looks sick man gonna deffo try that on my old helmet

Looks really cool

That leave that you used for your camo is Cypress don't know the particular kind but it is Cypress. Here in Portugal it's mainly planted on the cemeteries..

Amazing job but personally I'd do leafs just over the parts where the branch starts to fade off would make it look a lot sharper

lol it's either gonna look good or it's gonna look stupid. Story of my life haha Awesome video!

Nice !!!! Who cares what the plant is called. Here in KY we call it a "SHRUB" !!!! Point is use what works and looks good. Nice Nice job and Instructions.

Cool idea, now if you can figure out a way to camo out a suit to wear you can match the bike and the helmet.

That seat is badass

It looks nice, I think maybe black as a base layer though

nice depth. awesome work man

Wow I would never think of this...

Wow, you are very talented!

Every motorcyclist wants to be camouflaged haha

Very nice

That video was awesome! helped me do my helmit. Thanks.

Great video. I watched the entire thing❗ I was kind of hoping to see it completely done. Maybe you wearing it on the bike🤔

Awsome job 👌

This is so cool! I'm planning on painting an rc tank in camo

that looks hella sick

Great Job Mike.? I will start to go trapping through the Woods,? Now,? Looking for some nice Branches,? And some Pine Needles,? To use for my Camo Jobs etc.? Thanks for sharing,? Your great Camo work,? with us.?

what motorcycle????

Could finish this off with 2-3 coats of clear, buff, polish & wax and it would look professionally done, and the added benefit of no worries of fading or scratches for an extra $10 worth of material :)

very nice..would be cool to see a car like this..maybe different colors

The Black seemed come on dominant/less subtle. I know most ppl start with a light colored base (Khaki/Tan) I wonder if a black base to start then add the Tan then Army Green to control the amount of the black color. Arborvitae Shrub.😁

wow...awesome paint

paint technique straight from the movie shooter

that's nice I am using a Adams Trail A Bike striping it down to bare frame and paint it brite yellow & orange this way going to slap a e bike wheel and make a push trailer

Its gonna look good or it's gonna look stupid. Lol. I like how it doesn't matter. I'm the same way. I'd rather fail at trying than succed at not trying. Im going to camo my tools like that. You have inspired. Ride on.✌️

Really cool…. Thank you.

Great job! You should camo that football next lol!

Nice looking helmet. On a side not, you sound like De Niro.

how come you didnt scuff the clearcoat - that paint wont last

nice job and nice idea

So much for surface prep!

Black orange and some yellow it would look the flames.

I think I'm going to copy you but in my own unique way inspired by you.

id base coat it green, then spray black and end in tan

Looks great !!!

you generally had the "branch" pointed in the same direction throughout, I would think by turning it around randomly would give better result...but i've never done it and don't claim to be an expert...still looks good

Seems to me you inverted your color scheme, green base and brown on top would actually look like the Junipers your useing, but this looks good.

You couldn't show us the pealing of the tape and the finished product?

Problem with this is that you're not going to be up in the tree on your motorcycle lol

You want the light base coat first. If you do green first then it looks like a picture of the foliage which is not natural. The lighter branches resembles the foliage catching light rays, which is what you want. After the green you can do brown for "woodland" 3 color.. But whether you use the brown or not, to go back over with very light tan highlights makes them pop with a little more depth. The black is a good touch but with lighter, more wispy shots of paint, it would add the shadow effect intended without covering up an otherwise nice job. I agree, too much black. Overall a good vid, tho. Thanks.

Needs a "see motorcycles" sticker Thanks for the tips

Great video I an going to do that to my wife's minivan

Gteat job man i did the same with my ice chest and boat

Завтра поеду искать растение!!! Тоже попробую замутить

dat bike look sick

I think instead of the black I would have used a dark brown

Beautiful paint job... but this is going to make it hared for other people to SEE you... on the road.

One key factor is to sand it back first !! I bet that paint comes of very easy, as in, if it bumps anything at all ?

Cool

not my choice of technique but to each is own. did you clear coat it? I like it still because you choose to try something yourself and take chances. I wish more people would do that and be a bit creative.

I like the idea but the leaves come out tan on the helmet and not green like the item you used. If you would have started with dark and light alternating green and used the tan you would have achieved the opposite result looking more realistic. I have done many of these to rifles and I found out after trial and error. Nice Job anyways.

i love it

very nice

You're too hard on yourself. Great job! For those of you who don't think this is camo.... you watch too many movies.
