Ok, the time has come to give her a lick of paint, been wanting to do this since I bought it but never quite got round to it. Don't think I'm gonna bother with the matt black/Umbrella Corp thing (for now anyway ) however I'm now torn between two colours. So should I paint it NATO Green or NATO Light Stone (Desert Sand)??? I just cannot decide

I'd go for the desert sand...that way the tow truck will identify you more easily

Ended up going for NATO Green just can't quite picture it in Sand, and I'm not sure it would look right.

I think you're right, although my masking for the desert one didn't go to plan, and I'm not sure of the shading!

Bob?
That way when someone says "Bob's your Uncle" you can say "No. Bob's my Truck" |

You're only a few steps away from owning a submarine!
I hope there's room on there for a SUBSIM sticker

Yup, for now anyway, I may do it matt black at a later stage along with the alloys If I remember I'll try and get a few pics as I go along with the painting process and stick em up if anyone's interested?
