Are you going for traditional camo or more of a real tree design?

I like the traditional camo look on our rams. You can make a stencil for that easily out of a peice of cardboard. Just cut it with some different shaled curves on it and hold it with one hand and spray with the other. Rotate it and whatnot to get the different shapes and lines. Its easy to do, try it on that old door you got for practice.

i'd imagine if you're painting your truck camo with a rattle can, you probably wouldn't care about how it exactly looks lmao i plan on doing the same with my truck, and you can bet your *** the only thing i'm going to do is tape off the windows and things that dont need paint, and i'm just going to town lol i'd like to think i got a pretty steady hand anyway lol
