You can spray flat black or satin black on the limbs, then camo with a alighter color using a leaf for a template.  Actually, flat black works well...looks like sticks in the woods.

If I keep my mun ebony Morrison Shawnee riser I'm thinking of getting another set of foam, black glass arapaho limbs and then camo dipping them in Predator deception brown! Would look great on that riser!

Do you mean like this:

 

Jason Kendall can make you a camo limbed Kanati. They look awesome and perform even better.
