Holy Sh*t ! You are serious!
Where did you find that LR picture?

If you are going for Pink, then go for the Matt, don't go for Glossy Pink!

My contribution to over a billion searches on google a day :)

The pink color came about by accident by the Royal SAS when a downed plane was searched for over 2 months. Finally a team of nomads found it. The reason they couldn't find it from the air was the sand storms had blasted the paint off the plane, exposing the pink primer which was virtually impossible to spot from the air. Thus the SAS started off with the pink schemes in Africa. Nowadays they are using a dull yellow in afghanistan and iraq (because of the yellow/gold tint in the sand)

At close, the MATT pink seems like an incomplete finish, as if pockets went dry when during a paint job and the task was left at the primar stage.

Nope. Re-think that pink. Pink is reserved for the Mary Kaye Commandos.

How about if you paint it like the ZEBRA stripes, and you can use any color you want to, ZEBRA stripes are not really camo, but I bet you could get by with it, and love it... "That's what I would do, just to prove em wrong" it would be better than the hot pink, and still have a pattern to it...LOL
Of course there is also the leopard skin pattern, that would also still be better than a pink Mutt...
