On this latest live, I’ll be speaking to the lovely gents over at Rogueworx Airsoft, they are the kings of the KC-02 platform. When I started, as far as I was concerned we were trying to dress ourselves to mimic the flora of the countryside. It’s actually made me feel very inadequate about my own crafting skills lol I’d probably just chuck him the money if I needed anything done in the future, as it’s a lot better than what I do.

If you are not satisfied with our products or service, please contact with us before you leave Feedback, we will resolve it for you as soon as possible.You can check out the picture below to see the the main components, which are a few shades of cotton and raffia, with a bit of burlap and coconut rope added in. A darker base layer is how you create the illusion of depth as it will contrast with the 3D elements which will be catching the light. Though I’d personally suggest making your own hoods and suits, as 90% of the art of concealment is the ability to craft, identify your surroundings and where/when things do or do not work, having someone doing this for you will cost you a lot of money as you are having to pay someones time, which can be upwards of 50+ hours. For the areas of solid material, you need to be a bit more creative, either poking small holes through it to pass things like raffia through, or attaching stuff directly using something like ShoeGoo.

The idea of the wire stems from those boonie hats that have a wire rim in them, though it’s widely implemented and common knowledge nowadays, it’s a great little touch and serves a useful purpose. Ed from Silly ghillie kindly sent one of his crafted hoods to have a look at, as he knows I’m a big fan of crafting! In addition, the innovative compression ghillie system allows you to instantly reduce the volume of the suit for carrying it in the transport position without the use of additional covers. If our selection of 3D leaves is not enough, you can always attach more vegetation you find on your local field. In this post I’ll be showing you how the hood looks on it’s own, worn and out in the wild, while discussing some of the techniques that Silly Ghillie has used.I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Silly Ghillie isn’t just another person who does crafting, the guy is an ARTIST. For those of you who don’t know Josh has been making Ghillie suits for a number of years, both for airsoft and for military use. Precise execution and suitable production technology allow for a long-term usage of masking under different tactical and field conditions without any signs of material usage. As I’ve said for years, if you have the time and energy to learn to craft yourself then go for it, there’s a ton of resources out there in groups like Sniper ops where you can learn. Wearing your veil as a hood allows you to put it on an off in an instant without the need to put it down somewhere.
