Post subject:  Need paint suggestions- Stars & Stripes Forever Hawk

This is the WIP for my Stars & Stripes Forever II Hawk. It's been a while, but I'm creating versions of Flash, Grand Slam, Clutch, Hawk, and Steeler since Hasbro ignored them back in '97.

This custom shows Hawk in an approximation of his original uniform, but needs a color scheme.

My first thought is desert camouflage, but it's not really landing with me. I also considered sky blue top/brown bottom. Slate top/charcoal bottom.

There's also the option of putting him in an intentionally bad color scheme. After all, Hasbro slopped out Scarlett in purple and rust for that set, if I recall correctly.

Anywho, I am stuck.

Throw some ideas out, please.

That’s a tough one. Really have to think outside the box here.

I like your approach, 2DARK2C.

I'll go with a dark green over a pale green, with rust boots/gear.

How about a secondary color for the boots, on the "buckles" or whatever they're supposed to be?
