Guys I would like to do a urban type blackish / greys / maybe white combo paint job and I have been having a hard time finding much for pictures. This will be for my deuce bobber and was wondering if anyone had a picture of someones MV done in a black / grey camo?

Im just trying to find a example of what my mind sees even though my fingers can't seem to find it on the net.

Any thoughts would be welcome.

Thanks!

Thank for the idea guys, I think I will go with a flat non reflective black Base and a Dark Grey and a Light Grey for the colors. As for the pattern I might use the Merco or maybe a custom design, either way theres going to be some tapeign and cutting to get the desired effect.

Ok... you are talking my colors.... I'm doing a "Dazzle" urban camo on a Blitz Black base. I'm in an urban/verdant AO, so I may add a touch of green. But as far as I know, there are only a few M35s in those colors.

I called dibs!!!!

I can't do mine until spring, so you have that long to be "The first." :beer:

I didn't think anyone else had my bad taste...

Ive never been a fan of doing anything like everyone else but I would bet mine wont happen until spring as well. The weather is starting to turn here fast and I just started the front half of my 8 inch lift kit tonight. I hope to get the 16.00r20s and rims on the way next week. At least then I can drive it, painted or not.

Don't sweat it, I don't think anyone else has done "Dazzle", and if you're going for the urban Mercenary truck like I think you are, it won't look anything like mine. Mine will look more like a WWI or WWII battleship than any kind of normal camo M35.

I can't wait to see how it looks brother! Maybe we can make some trucks "green" with envy.:p

You are correct. The M35A3 is a truck the Mikew built. That is his shop in the background. Been there many times.

Hey I want to play.:jumpin:
It not urban, it wasn't a bobber, and I considered it winter cause it has a base of white.
But it has been this way since 2006.
I had 3 different camo patterns on the truck parts when I bought it, so I painted the lights white, the darks grey and filled in with black. All primers.:mrgreen:
