Applying Camo face paint

[OEF_VET]

Last week, Oleg took some pics of me for a magazine. While I was putting on my camo face paint, he took this pic, figured I'd share it with ya'll.

Looks like you are painting your eyeball :what:

Can't let glare off an eyeball give away your position!

How do you like to apply it? If I have the time and a mirror I like to apply my "man make-up" in a tiger stripe pattern just 'cause it looks cool. I know that technically you should apply darks to the high spots (nose, forehead, and chin) and lights to the low spots (eye sockets, cheeks) to counter act shadows on the face. Of course after about 30 minutes it is all just a blended green-gray mess regardless :)

Actually, the best camo job I've ever seen was on a girl who drove the muzzle of her M-16 (don't ask...:rolleyes: ) into her chin. She got stiches, so she couldn't apply camo to her chin. She was a white girl, so after the rest of her was camoed all you could see was this oblong white patch in a sea of gray-green. Really threw off the pattern-recognition software in the old mark I eyeball, let me tell you!

Caption should read, "And after seeing Rosie O'donnell naked, this fine gentleman decided to scorch his eyes out with a lit cigar...."

I know what he's doing, but that picture looks incredibly painful. :eek:

That photo is utterly horrifying. :what:

Dude, visit the cosmetics aisle and buy an eyeliner!

It looks like you trying to pluck your eye ball out with some sorta' mellon baller!! :what:

[OEF_VET]

It wasn't anywhere near as painful as it looks. The skin around my eye was being pushed aside as I was painting the eyelid.

Just be glad we didn't get the "applying nose camo" pic...

Anybody use the burnt cork method?
