Bundeswehr Multitarn: hide better by 6 colours
BW Multitarn
Primer: Vallejo 71.244 Sand Beige
2nd colour: Vallejo 70.984 Flat Brown. I cut the toothpick tip from the thicker body to the tip by knife, so it soaks more paint and I keep them wet in water, when pausing
2nd colour: Vallejo 70.984 Flat Brown
3rd colour: 72.035 Dead Flesh
this could be it, happy with it so far, but wanting more, for sure
Left: 4 colours; Middle: 5 colours, Right: complete 6 colours... I will dab the colours to a more natural appearance...in theory 🙂
Here they go: Ready for the diorama
Some final touches on the crew

Michael KohlAnxious about the result. A neutral background for the figures is recommended.

Joachim P.Hello, Michael, thank you very much. You are totally right, I will use a neutral background from now on. I am anxious myself, since 6 colours are difficult to place in the right relation on this rather small space. Cheers!.

Joachim P.Hello, Mathias, thank you very much! It meant a whole new dimension of dabbing to me! 🙂

Joachim P.Hello, Rolf, thank you very much! The paint-job on the 8 figurines was for sure time-consuming, but I think, it paid off 🙂

Joachim P.I want to thank everyone, who gave a like here!! I really appreciate it. 🙂

Joachim P.Hello, Mathias, I will work out some stronger expressions by the last touches. Since the paintjob on the figurines was very intensive, some days of drying-time appeared reasonable to me. Thank you for your interest at all, because I always enjoy talking about our hobby and all details of it. Cheers!

Album info
My attempt to imitate the Bundeswehr Multitarn camouflage has been an exercise in very fine dots. After priming with Sand Beige, I applied the 5 other colours with a rather dry brush and very soft tips. I just combined them to a ratio that felt plausible to me and must say, I learned a lot about how to match colour tone ratios.
These are the colours I used:
Vallejo:
Sand Beige 71.244 Primer
Flat Brown 70.984
Dead Flesh Green 72.035
US Dark Green 71.289
Cold White 70.918
Ammo of Mig:
Gray Blue A.MIG-0210
I am happy with the result, and hope, you will call it a valid attempt. Cheers!!!
