    Just three diagonal lines on each side of my face. Also try to dull out my nose.

    I'm not one to spend a half hour applying a cool design then having to take it off. Some people on here get pretty creative.

    Use camo fx and usually just take couple seconds when first get in stand and put it on.

    Not sure it really matters but there is actually a method to the madness if anyone is interested. The purpose of applying camo paint is to hide, blend, conceal the face. The general rule of thumb is apply light colors to depressions, eyes, under chin, dark colors to high spot like nose, cheeks. Do so where possible with lines that are perpendicular to natural lines of face.

    Although fun to some the "cool patterns", "war paint" type camo jobs actually do very little to camouflage but do sell a lot of advertisement space.

    have fun guys....
