Tell us what you think about the Digi-Camo Idea we got for the FC.

My buddy is doing this for his digital class in college. I had this idea for the car with a full body wrap and we thought we would try it out in photo shop. What you all think, we only have the top view done for the min. We're also coming up with colour ideas also put your input in.

white, grey, and black camo pattern
or
blue, grey, and black

I don't know I would like to see it on a car. I saw some trucks a few yrs. ago at a car show with that stuff on them and they looked pretty cool. They were not camo but they were still neat.

Or go really out there and do bright orange, green, and blue.




Its just a wrap, so in a year if you decide you don't like it, tear it off.

Why not like Nate said if you don't like it just pull it of. Try a black, grey & white pattern.

I wouldn't do it, even the Army is reworking their version of the digital camo. Classic camo can work nicely though I think, sand or forest schemes.

You got that right. Mine is painted camo. Bought it that way. It has to be the worst thing I've ever seen. In the process of sanding it to repaint right now.

I had a charcoal gray Camaro, and right around dusk every car on the road tried to ram into it. Even with the lights on I had problems until it got dark enough for the lights to really stand out. I think this is a very bad idea if you use a blending type of camouflage. It may work out OK if you use a dazzle type of camouflage with bright colors that would contrast with the driving environment, although that may still create problems with other drivers estimating the speed, dimensions, and position of your car.

A bright WWI German aircraft style lozenge pattern may work well for a computer application:

Maybe you could integrate rotor graphics?

Could be worse, the previous owner of mine put pink camo seat covers on mine. And I can't take them off because the seats really need them.

Well, could get new covers, but don't want to spend the money on them when there are more important things to be done. I would much prefer to just get new seats.

I will have to take a picture of the pink camo seats. They really are awful.

I'd like to see it with a camo pattern like the lambo above or this:


Yours looks a little 'flat' though. Like a cutout or something. Cool Idea though...
