Your "snow camo/urban camo" is one of the few that actually do look ok. But there is still a certain "look at me, look at me" affect that goes with camo paint and not everyone likes that. Subtle is good because the good things on the rig don't just jump out at you and the more you look the more you see as it's not so in your face.
Camo can look great it just needs to be done well and be on a rig that justify's it.
but in saying that, there was alot more effort in yours .
I hate going to weddings because all the grandma's used to poke me in the ribs saying you're next, you're next. They've stopped doing it since I started doing it to them at funerals.
my zuk went through a few colour changes over the years.
Originally it was factory yellow = yuck
then I painted it Colorbond Rivergum satin wth a matt black bonnet and gloss black flames = cool
then WhiteKnight Bright Orange 21 = yuck
finally Hammertone Charcoal = cool
all colour changes were from spray cans with bugger all prep work. The satin one worked very well as it was a good covering paint and hid blemishes well as did the hammertone. The gloss orange needed better prep and more coats
im respraying my LWB after some body work.
found a colour from a peugeot, and its a metallic dark green, similar to orginal colour, should looks the goods. Have metallic silver to redo custom rear and front bars.

suzuki panels are the worst, thin, and wonky. panel beatings a waste of time the bog comes out straighter and firmer than the rest of the car, i luv it
Another brushed on blue hammertone. Roughed up the old paint with (80 grit?) sand paper I think, and rolled on the paint where possible and then brushed on the rest (most of the car ) Easy to touch up after making "contact" with things too
