I'd say it depends on the intended markings, I'm a big fan of camo but grey is good in a lot of situations...maybe grey camo? Perhaps something like this?  ;)




Nice Frogfoot by the way :)

Go shades o' grey!!  Hell, add a medium blue!  

Green just sucks.

Wait, did I say "Blue?"  Why do I suddenly want a beer?

Thanks for the comment, Jeff. I never really liked the 'foot until I got my hands on the model, now I think it's pretty sexy ! Does anybody make the two-seater ?

I'd go for grey as long as it's not one shade.  I'm planning a build with a grey scheme, two greys & white.  Same with the greens to be honest, whether it's grey, green or purple, I don't like to see a single shade.
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Nah, he's looking for something he hasn't tried before.  ^_^

I went with the 'jackass' component.  :cheers:

Okay, I selected the green option but only because you included the word "jackass" in there.

Honestly, I'd go with SEA camo.

That's just the kind of maniac I am.

Styrene in my blood and an impressive void in my cranium.

Well, it's almost time to sit down, pull up a beer and do some painting. Looks like it'll be green.

Cheers guys !
