The Art Of Concealment

If your hunting, playing paintball, in a military exercise, find yourself in need of concealment or just want a cool Halloween costume. Then your gonna wanna blend in with your surroundings. Be it in the woods or in the city, a little knowledge will help you achieve the maximum affect of concealment. So your gonna need yourself some Camouflage.

WHAT IS CAMOUFLAGE?

Anything in the environment your in to use to keep yourself, position, and equipment from looking like what they are.  CAMO comes both from man-made and natural materials. Natural camo, like fresh vegetation eventually will die and wilt and needs to be changed well before this happens. Man-made material will over time fade and become ineffective. So maintain your camo.

LEARN FROM NATURE

Mother nature has provided animals with amazing camouflage, for protection and for advantages in hunting. 

Take a look at the animals in your environment and check out their color patterns and take heed on what they look like and copy them if you can.

CAMO UP!

HELL YEAH CLINT!!

Study up on the terrain and vegetation that your in, pick camo that best blends into that area. when placing branches, twigs or grass on you and your equipment, make sure you break up the pattern of man made materials. 

When applying camo to your face, apply a two or three color combo in an irregular pattern. 

Paint shiny area with a dark color (top of nose, ears, chin, forehead, checkbones). Paint shadow areas with light colors (under the chin, under the nose and around the eyes)

WHEN CONCEALED

Movement draws attention and is noisy when moving. If you need to move, stay low and move from covered concealed routes. Avoid open areas and watch your shine! During the day keep exposed metal, glasses, bi-nocs, watches, exposed skin or shiny man-made martial in check. At night be aware of flash lights and fires along with keeping your noise level at a minimum.








HAPPY BLENDING!
