Will Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Looks great! I painted mine with lighter colors as well. I think it blends in better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tanman Posted September 18, 2012 Author Share Posted September 18, 2012 do you think adding more grass will help it blend better? im not sure if it will help or if it will make it look like a solid color Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skee0025 Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Got any photos that arent linked in through a photo sharing site? I love to see what people are doing on their own, but I'm shut up behind a bunch of filters that I have no control over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c0untryf1sh3r Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Looks great. Maybe add some darker highlights to the longer marsh grass to give it some more depth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordie Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Looks great. I painted mine a varity of light and dark shades and found that the boat is concealed mostly by what I pull it into. I mean I have come to the conclusion that the boat could just about be any type of camo as the weeds usually cove it up. My next paint job will be with the darker shades as I think I would like to match the surface of the water more than anything if possible.

HNTNBUX Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 It looks nice I would not go any lighter though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 I don't think so, I use alot of real grass that covers most of the boat anyway. Looks awesome driving down the road though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jparrucci Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 I think most waterfowl camo is too dark, especially as the season progresses. Sit across the duck pond from somebody wearing Advantage Max4 and tell me they don't stick out. A tan burlap sack is better than most waterfowl camo, at least in the cattails and reeds.

Agreed, and on that note alone, I think the boat looks perfect. Nice work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan z Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Looks good. I agree all of the new camo out there is way to dark . I miss advantage wetlands camo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farley Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Yeah my first duck hunting bibs were an old pair of charhart tan bibs, they blended in pretty well. Nice work on the boat, once you bend down some cattails around the boat, get some mud on it, etc... it will blend in fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WALLEYENUTZ Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Not dark enough!! Think of it this way....... when you look down INTO the cattails from above you see nothing but dark shadows. Even from the water level you will see lots of shadows behind the first few rows of cattails.my $.02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
