Painting the 5 ton

I have an M923A1 5 ton that has the three color camo (green, brown, black). I'm thinking of doing the paint in same color and was wondering between complete base coat then brown & black patterns, or just paint each color area (probably spray can) as needed. I have the paint pot and did my deuce in a solid color, so have some experience with the carc paint. Also thoughts on the Behr water base?
Thanks

I've painted 4-5 trucks with Behr and swear by it. It's super easy to use, easily available, and relatively inexpensive. I've got 2 years of the South Florida sun and rain beating down on one of my trucks and it still looks great. I've always found it easier to base coat and add the brown and black as needed. Just my 2cents
