this is the 75th video I watched on how to spray paint on something.. I noticed that it doesn't matter if you've done such a great job or not.. people would always leave negative comments.. I don't know if they can do something better or just jealous.. anyways, great job man

I almost like it better before the black better, I know the black gives it the depth to get the 3D look but the first 2 colors worked very well together. It's harder to do on a small piece because you have to use more black or it won't look the same, on a bigger project you can use less black and really get the depth/3D look to pop. It's all about depth perception.
I think it looks good. Thanks for for teaching me about camo. I think I'm gonna to try this with silver, blue and black and some naked branches for a lightning effect. Then I'm going to clear coat it. Thanks for the idea
I stumbled upon your video by accident and I must say I'm impressed. Would have loved to see the finished product after it dried. It looks great. Going to try it on some accents on my truck with some clear coat. Thanks for the vid.
We have painted four complete trucks using a similar technique,the result is awesome, especially if you use multiple colours its vital to have the black on last because it adds depth to the entire job and the 3d effect . Another trick is to use gloss colours for the base colours, and flat black over everything, the gloss colours pop under the flat colour and creates a definite 3D effect all flat colours just blend into eachother and you dont get the same effect. We just finished a jeep cherokee in pink and purple camo it looks pretty good. From beginning to end including sanding prep a bit of body work and masking, the entire truck took about 36 hours
Muskrat Outdoors me too! I live in south Florida I’m thinking of using fern leaves. I have a 2001 Wrangler Sahara in great shape but original paint is messy so this could be my solution!
Beautiful paint job. Been browsing ideas for my AR and I had really wanted to go with a kryptek or urban pattern but this just stands out so beautiful. Might have to try it but with a base coat of white and then greys blacks and maybe even a Navy blue.
You should spray the helmet green then paint it with the tan using the foliage. That way the foliage will be green with a tan background rather than tan foliage with green background.
This looks like the Western red cedar I have all over, or something close. This is pretty cool but I'm going to start with that leafy green color 1st, and lay down different leaves all over at once so I don't have to move them all around...I'm thinking cedar, plus ferns, bramble leaves & a couple others plus branches.
Ive seen similar but this is a very good video and simple to do thanks to this guide.. I plan to do my bike fairings.. Will be interesting, as long as i dont get nicked for stealing my neighbors bushes.. Keep watching the news 'derbyshire man in his 40's steals neighbors bush!' Now where did i put that balaclava? Hmm 🤔 😜🤣. Thank you for this.. Much appreciated.
Great Job Mike.? I will start to go trapping through the Woods,? Now,? Looking for some nice Branches,? And some Pine Needles,? To use for my Camo Jobs etc.? Thanks for sharing,? Your great Camo work,? with us.?
Love this! Thank you for making this! I have been trying to find a video for months for real tree camo idea for painting my walls, I obviously won't be using spray paint, but using a sponge.
I have a miny bike I didn't want to spend a lot of time doing a bunch of body work.I did but not as much and it turned out great thanks.that orbervidus tree branches makes cool camo.thanks.
PS, the idea of leaving some of the pattern along the top of the visor is smart. I’ve always used a strip of electrical tape across the top for those days when you’re riding into the sun, but your idea is much better and more creative.
looks like what i did on my rifle. i did sand, brown, and black came out pretty good. Funny we used the same bush leaves and i just seen this video now.
That leave that you used for your camo is Cypress don't know the particular kind but it is Cypress. Here in Portugal it's mainly planted on the cemeteries..
The Black seemed come on dominant/less subtle. I know most ppl start with a light colored base (Khaki/Tan) I wonder if a black base to start then add the Tan then Army Green to control the amount of the black color. Arborvitae Shrub.😁
Mike, How many cans of Camo Paint,? Did you have to use,? To do your Bike,? Just wondering,? And do you finish off,? Spraying any Clear Coat,? On the Bike & Helmet,? To protect the Paint Job etc.?
For better camo spray your dark color first then use your pattern and spray your lighter colors. Look at the color of the plant your using to judge what color goes down first. Dark color should always go down first.
Its gonna look good or it's gonna look stupid. Lol. I like how it doesn't matter. I'm the same way. I'd rather fail at trying than succed at not trying. Im going to camo my tools like that. You have inspired. Ride on.✌️
Nice !!!! Who cares what the plant is called. Here in KY we call it a "SHRUB" !!!! Point is use what works and looks good. Nice Nice job and Instructions.
not my choice of technique but to each is own. did you clear coat it? I like it still because you choose to try something yourself and take chances. I wish more people would do that and be a bit creative.
that's nice I am using a Adams Trail A Bike striping it down to bare frame and paint it brite yellow & orange this way going to slap a e bike wheel and make a push trailer
Francis Arthur, You're right, it does weaken the helmet. They do make a product that you can put as a base first so the chemicals in the paint don't compromise the structural integrity of the helmet. I can't remember what it's called right now but I believe it is a water based barrier that won't effect the helmet. Most industries won't allow any painting on hard hats and some have stopped allowing people to even put stickers on them because they say that the chemicals in some adhesives will do the same thing.
Canadian Mud Junkies it stuck just fine, still looks good today, ive got anothet helmet im going to paint, in the video ill show this helmet it held up just fine
Could finish this off with 2-3 coats of clear, buff, polish & wax and it would look professionally done, and the added benefit of no worries of fading or scratches for an extra $10 worth of material :)
Never took the tape off the glass to see how it looked like because he only taped half and i don't think thats gonna work seeing that the wrong end was taped up...how you gonna see?????
Arent you worried about the detrimental effect the solvent in the paint will have on the fibreglass? Also I have always ridden under the rule of Be Safe, Be Seen, camouflaging yourself seems to be asking for some numpty to pull out front of you, it does look amazing though, well done!
funny thing is, the bike is camo, and more people see it coming than my harley davidson, different makes people notice, even tho its camo it stands out
Mike OD Of course camo is contextual. Effective camouflage is a number of factors besides colour and pattern. Far more important to concealment is movement and contrast with background. I know of course that's not the goal here. You're going for a cool look and I'd say achieved it. Often home camo jobs end up looking very bush league but yours turned out well. That is cedar you're using BTW.
if you would of made your base coat green your leaves would of turned out green instead of tan...don't see a lot of tan leaves...I di my base coats in green and brown so when you spray over the leaves you are left with a green or brown leaf and the black and tan end up as the filler in colors ... but the tan leaves look good to
You want the light base coat first. If you do green first then it looks like a picture of the foliage which is not natural. The lighter branches resembles the foliage catching light rays, which is what you want. After the green you can do brown for "woodland" 3 color.. But whether you use the brown or not, to go back over with very light tan highlights makes them pop with a little more depth. The black is a good touch but with lighter, more wispy shots of paint, it would add the shadow effect intended without covering up an otherwise nice job. I agree, too much black. Overall a good vid, tho. Thanks.
you generally had the "branch" pointed in the same direction throughout, I would think by turning it around randomly would give better result...but i've never done it and don't claim to be an expert...still looks good

This was actually a very straightforward video, so I really appreciate that!

Bitch shut up.. why Noone ever said that is beyond me.
Vielleicht wäre es auch gut gewesen, mit Schwarz (oder Braun) zu beginnen und dann heller zu werden. Mir gefiel es ohne das Schwarz auch besser.
Thank you very much for this video. I repainted my Kawasaki Versys 650 using your advice and I’m very happy with the results!
Love the texture and the way it turned out man! Thanks for the video.
Great work. I'm gonna try this approach for painting my next electric guitar. :)
I think it looks good. Thanks for for teaching me about camo. I think I'm gonna to try this with silver, blue and black and some naked branches for a lightning effect. Then I'm going to clear coat it. Thanks for the idea
Mad paint skills. That's the baddest paintjob I've seen yet. It look dimensional, highlights really pop. Awesome, awesome job.
THIS IS SERIOUSLY ONE OF THE BEST CAMO PAINT JOBS NEVER THOUGHT OF IT BUT GREAT JOB AND KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK MAN
Thanks I think it looks good

Good job! I like the depth. Thanks for sharing.
I get the job done because of your video, you are my inspiration. Thankyou.
the black really makes the pattern pop out! stunning result with such an easy technique! awesome man!
Looks great! I have a Jeep I have been thinking of doing something similar on.
Muskrat Outdoors me too! I live in south Florida I’m thinking of using fern leaves. I have a 2001 Wrangler Sahara in great shape but original paint is messy so this could be my solution!
@@discoveringlockenest8420 Rattle can paint jobs are quick, easy and cheap too! Plus if is gets scuffed up, it's easy to fix or touch up.
Beautiful paint job. Been browsing ideas for my AR and I had really wanted to go with a kryptek or urban pattern but this just stands out so beautiful. Might have to try it but with a base coat of white and then greys blacks and maybe even a Navy blue.
Nice. Looks very cool. Gave me ideas for my reptile enclosures.
are you able to see through when you put the helmet on
Damn thing looks awesome. I would have never thought to use a leaf for the texture. Awesome job.
You should spray the helmet green then paint it with the tan using the foliage. That way the foliage will be green with a tan background rather than tan foliage with green background.

Great Job Mike.? I will start to go trapping through the Woods,? Now,? Looking for some nice Branches,? And some Pine Needles,? To use for my Camo Jobs etc.? Thanks for sharing,? Your great Camo work,? with us.?
Nice. You might try to use varying basecoats, black, green ,light gray, dark gray and tan. Then use the same technique with contrasting layers.
Love this! Thank you for making this! I have been trying to find a video for months for real tree camo idea for painting my walls, I obviously won't be using spray paint, but using a sponge.
That is beautiful! Painting that pattern on clothing would also look great.
The pattern reminds me of capillaries and veins.
You should do one with a bright red base, and shoot over it in black.
Thanks for sharing.
the branch is cedar, the job is beautiful. very cool.
I have a miny bike I didn't want to spend a lot of time doing a bunch of body work.I did but not as much and it turned out great thanks.that orbervidus tree branches makes cool camo.thanks.

Thought it looked better before the black. But still cool. I love the cedar branches look
Great video. I watched the entire thing❗
I was kind of hoping to see it completely done.
Maybe you wearing it on the bike🤔
That leave that you used for your camo is Cypress don't know the particular kind but it is Cypress. Here in Portugal it's mainly planted on the cemeteries..
Thought I was gonna hate this,but bloody brilliant
Don't forget that ORANGE VEST!
The Black seemed come on dominant/less subtle. I know most ppl start with a light colored base (Khaki/Tan) I wonder if a black base to start then add the Tan then Army Green to control the amount of the black color.
Arborvitae Shrub.😁
looks good, you didn't even need the black
very nice..would be cool to see a car like this..maybe different colors
That Bush Tho..... great job man...
nice depth. awesome work man
Wow, you are very talented!
Pierre jean claude thank you
thank you
Sounds like the birds are planing to build a nest!! thank you sir for helping out our nature!
It looks nice, I think maybe black as a base layer though
NOW THEY CAN OFFICIALLY TELL THE POLICE "I DIDN'T SEE HIM" LMFAO! :D
HELL YEA
Looks amazing dude
One key factor is to sand it back first !! I bet that paint comes of very easy, as in, if it bumps anything at all ?
Looks very nice
Did you cover up the glass shield on the helmet if not you messed up but it looks great
is there a shot with the tape pealed off i was hoping to see this show cased in the finished project
Mike, How many cans of Camo Paint,? Did you have to use,? To do your Bike,? Just wondering,? And do you finish off,? Spraying any Clear Coat,? On the Bike & Helmet,? To protect the Paint Job etc.?
What's the final result?? Maybe it was too much on the black also. And why not using a flat clear coat for making it more weather resistant??
how come you didnt scuff the clearcoat - that paint wont last
you would be suprised at how well that camo has held up, not a flake or chip yet
Amazing job but personally I'd do leafs just over the parts where the branch starts to fade off would make it look a lot sharper
Cool idea, now if you can figure out a way to camo out a suit to wear you can match the bike and the helmet.
Looks really cool
Looks sick man gonna deffo try that on my old helmet
I think I'm going to copy you but in my own unique way inspired by you.
I love the birds in the background.
Seems to me you inverted your color scheme, green base and brown on top would actually look like the Junipers your useing, but this looks good.
This is plastic, but would you primer coat metal first?
Awsome job 👌
Every motorcyclist wants to be camouflaged haha
look good with out the black..but good job ,did you put clear on it or left it like that
For better camo spray your dark color first then use your pattern and spray your lighter colors. Look at the color of the plant your using to judge what color goes down first. Dark color should always go down first.

Its gonna look good or it's gonna look stupid. Lol. I like how it doesn't matter. I'm the same way. I'd rather fail at trying than succed at not trying. Im going to camo my tools like that. You have inspired. Ride on.✌️
wow...awesome paint
You couldn't show us the pealing of the tape and the finished product?
Nice !!!! Who cares what the plant is called. Here in KY we call it a "SHRUB" !!!! Point is use what works and looks good. Nice Nice job and Instructions.
it's a cedar.
not my choice of technique but to each is own. did you clear coat it? I like it still because you choose to try something yourself and take chances. I wish more people would do that and be a bit creative.
that's nice I am using a Adams Trail A Bike striping it down to bare frame and paint it brite yellow & orange this way going to slap a e bike wheel and make a push trailer
Doesn't the spray job influence the helmets integrity too much or maybe it has been said already?
Lol
BeeSeeBee lol as in?

Hows the smell in that? Get a little woozie when your riding?
That video was awesome! helped me do my helmit. Thanks.
Great job! You should camo that football next lol!
ya, make it look like blue sky with clouds on it.
what bike is the camo bike? is that a 2 stroke. looks like a expansion chamber, hard to see....
nice job and nice idea
lol it's either gonna look good or it's gonna look stupid. Story of my life haha
Awesome video!
For me it’s usually the latter.
Why not use different pieces when it starts getting to much paint?? different patterns to..
how well did it stick you didn't sand it first so paint I'm sure has peeled by now
Canadian Mud Junkies it stuck just fine, still looks good today, ive got anothet helmet im going to paint, in the video ill show this helmet it held up just fine
that looks hella sick
Could finish this off with 2-3 coats of clear, buff, polish & wax and it would look professionally done, and the added benefit of no worries of fading or scratches for an extra $10 worth of material :)

I'm planning on painting an rc tank in camo
Do you add a clear Matt lacquer to finish ?
Never took the tape off the glass to see how it looked like because he only taped half and i don't think thats gonna work seeing that the wrong end was taped up...how you gonna see?????

Why not right? I did my bike in a WWII German "ambush" camo pattern.
id base coat it green, then spray black and end in tan

@@g8some Good for you, whatever makes you happy is right for you, right? I'm just saying how we did it in the military, in my group.
you generally had the "branch" pointed in the same direction throughout, I would think by turning it around randomly would give better result...but i've never done it and don't claim to be an expert...still looks good
Wow I would never think of this...
So wen cars start hitting you you know you blend in ?
Start without sanding.?
I personally think you should have done green first then the light after. Now it just looks like photo negatives. It doesn't look very good.
I like the tan & green better !!!!!! 😕😕😕😕maybe just me !!!!!!
Kurt mcKelvey yes me to. I would have let it what it was before
I think a third and darker color is good, but less of it. Pull back 12 to 16 inches and just dust it...
Just my opinion 😁
Yeah even i like just green and tan
