Does anyone know of a good way to paint Multicam? Would love it on my Guardsmen.

Multicam is an interesting camo to paint. The paints I used: Vallejo field drab, but I think that was too dark. so maybe tan earth or middlestone or khaki grey. Then you mix on splotches of olive green, very thin layers in blobs. Then I used bestial brown from Citadel and made blobs. I then went back and highlighted the colors, adding just a little bit of iraqi sand to the base color and then lightly went over the splotches and original field drab.

Following that I used iraqi sand and made thin squiggles and dots, and the German camo black brown and repeated. Do them horizonatlly, not vertically.

There you go.

Haven't done it myself (thought I had a guide but it's for ACU, not Multicam) but there's some interesting stuff here:
