painting camouflage predator rescue team

[entgunguy]

i am attempting to paint some predator rescue team headsculpts.
namely blaine, hawkins, and poncho. i was able to do poncho's camouflage since they are linear. but i have been using some practice heads and cannot get the more powdered look (green tone) for hawkins and blaine. what is the trick? i have tried watering down the green as well as using the end of a sponge and the end of fat brush for application but it still looks painted on.

i did purchase some brown blush from the 99 center store just to see if real powder would work but it does not stay on. should i just use chalk or crayon?

thanks in advance

I've seen people use weathering chalks or acrylic paints.

Actually for the camo paint i used black make-up (brand kryolan). Then sealed it with matte varnish.

I agree, I've always used Hunter's Specialties camo cream that comes in the tubes for face paint. Works great, can be removed and is actual camo face paint.
