Camouflage face paint pattern SOP

I wasn't sure where to post this question, but this seemed like a good place...

 

Are there any references for how different units/companies/platoons/etc. applied camouflage paint to their faces? I know that when I was in the 187th Infantry (Rakkasans) we had to apply the paint on our face so that it looked like a torii. I can't remember if that was actual SOP or just "strongly encouraged," and I can't remember if it was at brigade level or just battalion.

 

Anyway, I always wondered if other units had such an SOP for specific patterns of camo paint.

None of the units I was in had a defined pattern. Some guys tried creative things such as clowns or FTA, but the acceptable pattern was generally something close to what was in the FM.
