There's a couple on here actually, looks ok.  A small number of RRC were used by the forces IIRC, not including the SAS ones which weren't camo'ed

I think it would look good with dessert camo.  Don't forget to tell the DVLA though!

Sand, with varied sizes of black circle overlapped to form random patterns.  The black circes look like the mouse's ears.

A bit risky unless you know what your doing, do it wrong & it will look crap, get it right & it should look pretty good.

The trick is not to overdo the black DPM, roughly 40% coverage as a maximum.
