This is exactly what they used to do to boats to camouflage them.

Anything is possible if you are creative enough. Who needs ISO/OSHA/DIN standards or safety precautions?

Came into the comment section looking for a dazzle camo reference and was not disappointed.
Not so much hide the ship as make it extremely difficult to spit direction of travel and range-find. Skills very much required to place feet on stair-treads.
Wait, how is this camouflage? I can clearly still see the ship.
Dazzle Camo isn't to hide the ship, per say. It's to make it much harder to tell which way the ship is facing, and therefore what its heading is.
I see, thanks for the clarification.
If you're still interested you should go read the wiki. Fun little rabbit hole to jump down.
It also probably didn't work. The Allies were assuming that the Germans were using the same rangefinders we were in WWI. The Germans were using a more advanced rangefinder that doesn't have any problems with "Razzle Dazzle" camo.
It also probably didn't work as well as the Allies in WWI thought it did. It worked pretty well against our rangefinders at the time, that only used one point of reference, but the Germans were using sterioscopic rangefinders that this particular paint scheme doesn't seem to work on.
I see the problem. People may stumble and hit the hand railing. Just remove the railing.
Now that's what I call flying carpet
Are they selling/making medical supplies in that building?
I too, have watched the all time classic movie Slaxx
