Does anyone have any ideas how to paint the new digital camo patterns the US military is using for its uniforms as well as camo on fighters? I just purchased the AIG modern US troops and I'm stumped how to paint the uniforms if the soldiers are to look realistic....

What if you use some window screen material ?
The holes could be a little big but it could get you were you have to go.
Randomly fill the holes with thick CA glue in a grid pattern. Spray one color. Shift it when the paint drys and spray another.

i like the 'screen' idea but the AIP figures are quite small. I don't think it would work. For example, imagine trying to wrap an arm or leg or even a body for that matter. For a 1/32 plane I think it could be done practically.
