    After seeing a recent post with 82nd and 101st airborne face paint, i thought it would be interesting to compare countries...I'm sure most countries would have examples of this. I won't presume to post other countries examples, i will leave that up to their countrymen. But please do!

    I'd like to start with some war paint tens of thousands of years old. (*These pictures contain images of people now deceased)

    I know the US has some absolutely kick ass versions i hope someone will post...Some of the Asian countries have nailed it too...

    I wore paint on occasion. I had a complex design I liked on my forehead. People would ask me what it meant and I'd say "can't reveal that, but don't send a pix home, someone might turn it over." :D:cool::eek:o_O
