Description The current camouflage pattern used by the U.S Army, it's now been phased out slowly by the Multicam pattern.
Not really a "Universal" camouflage pattern but it seems to be work well in the rocky mountains of A-Stan and most urban scenarios. But I like the looks of it.

Took 2 hours for the coloring and probably half an hour for sketching.

Lineart was done with a 0.5mm mech pencil.
Base coloring was done with PS CS5, along with the ACUPAT.
Shading and extra details were done with Paint Tool SAI.

The ACUPAT/UCP is a pain to the rear to paint but less than CADPAT, MARPAT or even Multicam since it has only 3 colors.

EDIT: Darkened the lineart. Definitely need to do that step before coloring.

The camo is the best part of this.

Yep that's exactly the pattern used by the rangers in MW2, Multicam wasn't fielded yet when the game was released.

Looks better than Multicam in my opinion. Then I'm not talking about efficacity

Does it fit for broad daylight parachuting?

There's no point in blending in with the sky unless you're a jet or blimp or something like that. Parachutes cast an easily seen shape int eh sky so trying to cover the guy would be useless any way because they could just follow the chute down.

That explanation is a bit unnecessary, as that statement was meant to be taken as a joke.

I think, maybe it would blend with the sky but only for a short amount of time.
