As requested by Sieg. Two images, this time. The first is made to his specifications. The second, is a little bit of flair. What do you guys think?

I was trying to do some tiger striping myself recently but I didn't have the patience to really just sit and make it look good. Or did you have some easy way to do it?
Looks pretty good, though.

No. To make a camouflage pattern that looks good, would be way too much effort. The brushes don't exist, and as you can see, are not very transparent.
The process of MAKING my own is even more far fetched. I would first need a tablet. They're expensive. And I don't have the need or desire for one. Finally, I'm not willing to make my own. I am not a visual artist to that degree.
Now, if I had the talent, and the resources, I wouldn't mind doing it, but as it stands, it would just not be feasible.
I would propose that you ask around on MechaTalk, especially see if you can get Draco Starcloud to do one. Sorry.

If I can still find the site, I did find that one GM Sniper Custom in 'Nam-era Tigerstripe camo. I thought I IM'd or PM'd it to you, Sah-Wah.

I saw some camo attempts on MS. Most of them SUCKED. Brushes would be slightly easy, but you'd have to do them one section at a time. Section being everywhere there is a solid line dividing two plots of color. You also have to take into consideration that Brushes are FLAT. They do not contour to the image on their own, and they can only be one color. However, you can play around with the color of the stripes per brush stroke (click of your mouse), and the opacity. To get those stripes how they are, I had to rotate the image each time I did a new one that pointed up. It added another 10 or 15 minutest to the project.

I'd actually like to see a Navy BDU Digital Camo job on some of the Zeon suits. It would be a pain in the ass to do, though.

That would look bitchin on a Z'Gok or Hygogg or something... maybe once us feddies start using commandeered Zeon designs? I mean in canon they use the Zaku, Gouf, Dom and Gelgoog, so why not add some MSMs to that too? >:3

Yeah, requests. How often do they get done, and how long does it take?

Good point.
Also. That Tiger scheme would actually look good with the "regular" (blue/grey) Z'Gok E colors, especially for riverine/coastal operations where the brown camo-on blue-grey body would blend in with the terrain.
