Default Painting my truck

I am going to paint my truck Camo. It is a 1994 1500 4x4 with the horriable Dodge white paint. As of now i can wash it and lose a quarter panel of paint, it is awesome. LOL. Does anyone have a source for stencils for a good camo pattern? Thanks

Well I have gotten the tailgate and pass side bed done. They look awesome. Got a 4 stencil kit online in Mossy Oak Break up pattern and as the wife is very craft knowledgeable she helped tweak the colors a bit and it looks freakin awesome. I will post a thread when finished as well as instructions so if anyone else wants to do it you can.

I am starting with an OD green base coat so that the trees and foliage have a "forest" backdrop.
