Interesting Paint Schemes

Post by beltfed34 » Sat May 17, 2008 6:56 am

All,
I am in process of getting a Rank & File overdrive 4-speed and a few other mods, so thought I might repainting my H1. May just go back to OD, maybe the green camo standard army scheme. BUT, anyone seen or photo any cool or interesting paint schemes, foreign military schemes, etc. Looking for ideas, might do somehing unique if it appeals to me. Any assistance is appreciated.

Here is my current scheme:

I think that digicamo is a vinyl heat-shrink decal that's applied like van graphics....with a heat gun and alot of cussing.

That is exactly how I wanted to paint my slantback, but I would have painted the top camo, too. I even printed out the camo template and colored it to see what it looked like. Thanks for that pic, Brad.

Thanks all for the pics! Nah, dont much care for the digital scheme. And no, the snow cammo would only be approriate for about 1-2 days/yr here in Texas! Any foreign service pics? maybe Israeli or Jordanian? etc.???

What, are you bored or something? I took one look at that thing heart skipped a beat and I said, "straight BAD ASS". LEAVE IT ALONE. If you are that bored, take up crochet or something to occupy your time. Digital can't compare to yours. WOW!

The winch is to winch the spare down to the ground and back up, for 1-man loading/unloading, you know how heavy those dang tires are!
