My attempt to paint two identical 15mm Peter Pig Modern US soldiers in UCP (universal camouflage pattern) and woodland MARPAT.

I know that this is not authentic 1/100 representation of these two digital camo patterns, but if you paint realistically scaled camouflage on 15mm models, they will blend with wargame terrain. I also decided not to paint camouflage on their bulletproof waists. Army guy wear green woodland waist, but I want my other ACU squad to wear waist of same colour as his uniform.

Like the UCP…Woodland MARPAT is not easy to get right…

Here's the link with my final production on it: link

And the link to my 15mm ACU's….learned how to do it, and once I got these guys done, the army THEN changes (once again), to the UCP (greyer than previously)….

YEs, I'd love to see a tutorial on this. Painting camo is just a pain in the #$@%.
