I'd go with the green in the camo, instead of looking for another color.

OR find a color midway between the beige and brown.

Newby, is your other color copper, orange or some sort of brown. Almost looks copper colored to me. And a great choice, too

It's his quilt, his house, his uniforms. Poo on the rest of the world. Sorry, but that's what I think of some government regulations.

you could make the x's out of camo and break the other parts down use one color for the common square and the rectangles in the x another but i think i would use colors that are already there and not introduce another ...good luck
