![]() ![]() Shadow – Use light carefully, be aware of casting shadows as you move.If you do use mesh goggles, be sure to add some stripes of a different colour with paint to break up the goggle shape. I cut holes in the middle for the eyes to see clearly down the scope. Mesh goggles are easier to camouflage, but if like me you don’t like mesh, use a lenskin or mesh sticker to help hide it. By far the most common problem however, is the eye area. Cover your scope with fabric and cut a hole in to see through (doesn’t affect the view) to hide and glint from the lens, and also to hide that giveaway black circle. ![]() Spray paint can be used to make excellent patterns and colours, but still leave a very uniform flat surface that catches the light. Matt spray paint will help, but in the case of the rifle, add fabric tape and other materials to hide the surfaces. Look closely, and a lot of modern camouflages with high polyester content will have a slight sheen to them. Shine – Anything with a smooth surface, from a plastic buckle to the rifle and pistol, will give off a shine.A head popping up from or around something will be quickly spotted. Don’t pick obvious places where the enemy will check first, such as buildings or walls. ![]() try and find recesses in the ground to help hide your silhouette, or objects to hide in front of or behind. Prone is your best friend while setting up a position, make the lowest profile you can and be careful where you set up. Pay attention also to the face area and the area under the chin – leaf balaclavas help but adding extra material to the bottom will hide that shadow. Utilise a big hood, and pack extra material on the sides of the head to break up the neck outline. Also, the head and shoulders, usually on show the most, must be disguised. If you’re running a leaf suit, ghillie cape or BDU’s, make sure to add 3D camo to all to help break up the human outline. Obviously, the suit will do a lot of the work for you, disguising the shape. Move lower down, and be aware of the outline you make in the environment. The classic example is “skylining”, where you move across the top of a hill, outlining yourself. Break it up, but also be aware of how your shape interacts with the environment.
