In scale effect you'd be hard pressed seeing such detail. However I believe someone is printing decals for such applications.

Actually, they can be painted in 1/35 scale very effectively, you just need a steady hand and a small brush.  Here are a fewe tutorials on it.

US Army ACUs 1

US Army ACUs 2

USMC MARPAT

Here is one for painting 3-color DCUs, 6-color Chocolate Chip BDUs, and Woodland BDUs too.

The decals look OK, but I don't think they give a good effect since it is a pain to get them to settle to all the folds and creases.

Shinsengumi (hope I got that name right) makes 1/35 camoflage decals I have the digital MARPAT decals that they put out.

And Cross Delta put out ACU Pattern Digital camoflage and MARPAT digital camoflage in 1/35.
