Thanks. The base colour was a mix of 50/50 Vallejo US Field Drab 70.873 and Golden Olive 70.857, then drybrushed with Foundry Moss 29b and 29c. I used an old brush for the drybrushing that had a few stray bristles and was careful not to load the brush too much.

Next time I will use a slightly darker green as the base coat and paint the bodywork before adding the wings so that the streaks run more upright.
