I think he might have done better if he'd gotten some pieces of actual camoflage and at least matched the colors of the paint to the real camo. Camo is also very irregular - today's camo is digitally pixelated and kind of cool - even the Air Force and Navy are wearing it.

That's really sad - I feel bad for the machine. I bet she's wishing she could hang her head in shame and cover up that awful paint job. IMO, that's not camo. It looks like worms.

Oh dear, how dreadful! Poor little machine, she must be terribly embarrassed. Kinda like a pet dressed up for Halloween.

I agree--SHOOT IT.. I would strip it and repaint it that pretty 30-ish green...some people shouldnt be let within 50ft of a sewing machine.

Well, if you are sewing out in the jungle and need camo, where do you get the electricity to run it?
