Post your favorite looking / most effective camouflage pictures.
>>64494667Has to be between Serbian Oakleaf, M81 Woodland, and choccy chip. Choccy chip is extremely effective in deserts in the southwest to what I know
My area is a weird combo of arid scrubland and dense pine/fir forests. The pic doesn't show it but when you're actually in the woods there are a lot of very reddish Ponderosa Pines as well. What would you guys wear here? Regular MC seems like a decent choice but it's a boring one and I don't like wearing current issue stuff.
>>64494726Do a 50/50 Marpat Wood top/Desert bottom.
>>64494785Oh like the Canadians and Scandis do with their summer tops and winter bottoms? That always looks so sick
>>64494785Interesting idea, but that still runs into being a current issue camo, and doesn't have the reddish tones. Thinking about it, JGSDF camo could actually be pretty good if only the greens were a bit less saturated, but that's moot anyway since I'm a big guy (4u) and would never be able to find any that fit. The leafs' new CADPAT MT actually looks like a pretty good option, I wonder if that's gettable.
>>64494790It's also turbo fucking effective, you'll vanish past 50 meters type shit.
>>64494726Red Dawn camo. Love mine.
>>64494790>>64494800>just wear one typeCamouflage uniforms have another purpose besides pattern disruption and color shading, IDENTIFICATION. Camo uniforms also allow friendly units to ID each other at close range, which is why Multiscam is going to be an utter disaster.
>>64494761wot pattern is this?
>>64495204I don't know. I saw it on some Navy SEAL's IG.
>>64495204Sitka Subalpine
>>64494667I love British DPM. Wish not only the pattern were more common, but clothes that THIN. I finally found a pair of pants just in time for it to become too cold for them but they're so thin and breathable. I think it blends in pretty well; should do some real tests come Spring, though. No they don't last long, I know. But holy FUCK is it so nice to have something so thin to wear. Pocket situation is a little retarded, something like one leg pocket on left, one butt pocket on right (?) instead of just both legs both buttcheeks. I just have to figure out how to get the fucking mothball smell out of them. Who the fuck seriously stores surplus with that shit in their totes? Use permethrin. Or diatomaceous earth. At least you can wash that shit out! Side note, I wish I could get some DPM fabric like I can M81 and Multicam.>>64494726Depending on the luck of what you can find, how faded it is, and the maker of the fabric/dye lot, MARPAT? You're going to have too much green for the dead grass but I think it's a decent choice given the exclusion of Multicam. Or I could be a smartass and say "OCP, anon" because it's totally not just a copy of Multicam. Other than that, other desert patterns I can think of would be the British Desert DPM. A little light though. Non-military, maybe Sears duck hunting camo?>>64494785NTA; maybe some coyote brown thrown in? Like the orangeish stuff you see in USMC buckle/hardware spare/repair kits. Or a faded coyote brown T-shirt for the grass. Or a USMC dump pouch. Little shit you can throw on you'd need anyways. I'm sure I'm describing this poorly so hopefully you get my point.
>>64494726>alot of very reddishAlpenflage?
For me it's M05
>>64495170More and more im digging the different colors for tops and bottoms thing
>>64500296it makes a lot of sense, but commanders don't like it because it's not uniform.
>>64494726Check out Sumpftarn, German WWII camo carried over to the postwar German BGS (Federal Border Guard). It's got the right mix of colors for that with a tan base, reddish brown and green angular shapes and "raindrop" overprint.Original jackets and coats got expensive, but cheap copies in BDU cut are available and AFAIK you can even get cordura in this print thanks to recent rise of tactical gear in meme camos.More suggestions:- Some flavor of "reed" hunting camo should work well.- Some "not-a-multicam" like Bong MTP would do the trick with the added bonus of cheap gear w/ milspec NIR characteristic being available, and I really like bong smocks, packable goretex jackets and super comfy high-rise pants with darted waistlines made of lightweight fabrics, kinda like anon here >>64495400 describes.- OG Marpat Woodland would work great in the wooded parts and not entirely suck in the open, esp. with coyote brown gear on top and perhaps a little bit of scrim. Avoid marpat copies, their color palette is generally fucked and too dark.- Carharrt workwear in their toffee color which is basically a civvie coyote brown
>>64500392>esp. with coyote brown gear on top and perhaps a little bit of scrim.I'm the DPM anon; glad to see someone else thinks about using coyote brown stuff over top of their clothes. As a hunter I think it works good and the more coyote colored stuff I see the more I buy. Camo can be pretty area specific, some more than others, but that tannish yellow-brown color works pretty damn well no matter where I think about using it. Variations in the color between pieces? Oh well, even better camo.
>>64494829Could be good in the winter, especially higher up into the mountains.>>64495400Yeah I think MARPAT is too green and DPM is too brown. OCP is even worse than regular MC when it comes to not wanting to look like actual mil. >>64497880Definitely too much red.>>64500392That Sumpftarn is definitely the closest I've seen. BDU cut would be preferable for me anyway since normies would be less likely to recognize it as something connected to WWII Germany. On the subject of hunting camo though, another option I've found might be Kryptek Obskura Transitional. Not perfect but it's decently close, especially for the more alpine areas here, and should improve with fading. Carhartt stuff isn't the worst thought either. Maybe a solid color would work well in general, Ranger Green or one of those OD Greens that lean more toward khaki may actually be the meta.
>>64497887The colors are wrong in the frost variant
>>64501962Coyote brown is fantastic in almost any environment save maybe snow. Especially if it gets dirty and weathered in the same environment consistently.
>>64502168Maybe I should just take the coyotepill. I'd match my rifle if nothing else. (Even though I really wanted to go OD and just went coyote/FDE because I was impatient and it's what my LGS had.) I guess I could always go with a woodland winter type shell for snow use.
I quite like the frog snow camo
>>64502027The colors seem kind of wrong in general, but this was the only picture that's not of me I had with M05, so I just went with that one
Favorite but not effective entry
>>64502228NTA but I haaaaated the "everything is FDE/desert tan" era as every handgun had to be in FDE and everyone had to have xyz gun in FDE or paint it tan so much that it extended to all shades of tan guns and gear. Coyote brown/tan has definitely grown on me a lot though and I find myself liking it if just only for the fact that it actually fucking works here. Now I have quite a lot of coyote colored gear. Guns are only blued, parkerized, anodized, black, or otherwise painted black and furniture is only wood, black plastic, or green plastic, though. Don't know if I quite love it THAT much, lol, though the idea of a green AR with coyote furniture would interest me.
>>64494829Where from? KS?
>>64494695>choccy chip is...southwestWe got shrub, cactus, oil bush and a bunch of other green shit out here all over the place.You'd fit into a sand dune or layed out on the ground but the moment you move it's going to stand out.
>>64502406It's probably one of those old deviantart / pinterest pictures made in early-mid 2010s before m05 was allowed for commercial use.
>>64502017It's pretty effective. The white blends in more than you'd think even without snow on the ground.>>64503444Mine is from the special run OPS 241 (?) did. Finally fading after 5 or 6 years but it held up great. It's my primary camo for hunting as well.
>>64502017>Ranger Green or one of those OD GreensWell, the shrubland strip near the middle of your picture is basically Ranger Green:The Color, so you're on to something.>MARPAT too green, DPM too brownI feel like it's the other way around, with MARPAT being nearly 50 % Coyote Brown #476, the more worn the cloth, the more apparent it is. OTOH there are multiple color variations of DPM...
>>64494804>It's also turbo fucking effective, you'll vanish past 50 meters type shit.Yup, this works. I've seen people get surprised when someone in good winter camo just walks toward them, from an angle roughly 90 degrees off from where they were looking, and suddenly says "hi" or something.Just don't make any noise or move in a way that would change your silhouette too much. Human peripheral vision is good at detecting movement above a certain threshold, but it can't pick up enough detail to spot something with no contrast like that. Bright snow + wind + freezing air is pretty harsh on the eyes, too, potentially making it even harder to see.In the right situation, it's quite possible to just walk in the open, and still remain below that detection threshold until you're close enough to poke someone in the arm and spook the shit out of him.
>>64504240Might be, I either got it off google images or a finn in a thread about either winter camo or layering clothes on here a few weeks back, never bothered to check
>>64504281I can just imagine the first board of boomer generals seeing pixel camo for the first time and shitting their pants. My favorite is the USAF tiger stripe. Completely worthless dogshit pattern.
>>64504305Yeah I guess there's variation in MARPAT based on wear and maybe batch, I've seen it look very green. The DPM I meant was the desert variant that the anon I replied to suggested, which is purely brown/tan.Maybe plain coyote pants with plain Ranger Green top would be the way to go. The pic doesn't do a good job of showing it but a lot of areas have those dusty green trees right on top of the tan grass. This one sorta does but it's out East where it's more deserty, this whole area really is a textbook example of a transitional zone with desert flowing into alpine in a pretty short distance. >>64502731Yeah I've never liked FDE/tan that much myself either. Coyote brown is much nicer but not as available, I wish I could get pmags and that Magpul vert grip in it so the gun could be a consistent color. Someday I'll just switch everything to OD but I've got better things to waste money on ATM.
>>64504952I think your gun works pretty well. You might be able to RIT dye the mag to match coyote better unless it's one of those rarer discontinued colors you wouldn't want to fuck with. Also OD green (whatever green magpul has) is pretty nice too. I have some Magpul in green; came with the rifle. Looks nice. Back to that green rifle, coyote furniture idea, I could also see a Magpul coyote sling being a pretty good addition. Scope wouldbe black because fuck hunting down $$$ coyote/tan rings and scopes lol. If only those LMT green ARs weren't $$$ (AFAIK) I might consider it more. The idea might make for a good hunting rifle the more I think of it.
Leibermuster
>>64502595>edgy multicamThe only place where I can sort of imagine it working would be on volcanic soil, and even then I think something like m81 or regular multicam would be a better pick
>>64505881Yeah, it's not too bad. As I said earlier though I'd really like to go OD instead, it's always been my favorite, it's just harder to get. (And with OR's fucky legal situation getting green mags would be a bitch since nobody will ship here, even though every LGS still sells 30 rounders.) Coyote on green does sound pretty cool.>>64506232funny enough, that's one I might theoretically have to contend with too.
Who makes the best winter camo overwhites? Need something durable that won't shred to ribbons while walking through the bush.
Why peep ol' don need overwhites. Jez use ur skinz.
Any suggestions for black/grey/green/brown weird hunting camos like this? a nigga need pants
>>64506676Mmm, plasitc aftertaste.
>>64506665Pencott camo is pretty good, they have a bunch of different patterns. Just a matter of finding a company whose pants you trust and that fit well I suppose.
>>64494667I like desert variants of camo patterns, M90 is cool looking but M90K is even cooler by virtue of scarcity.
