Default My first try...homemade camo.(pics)

OK...I've always thought of doing this and figured what the heck. I have tons of camo laying around EVERYWHERE and have always liked trying new things so I thought I'd try making my own camo to wear this year. Now granted, this is one of those things you don't know will work until you try. I could finish and end up sticking out like Rosie O'donnell in a Jenny Craig commercial, who knows. I took some pics around my hunting land and printed them out onto transfer paper. I then cut them out into different shapes and began ironing them onto a shirt and pants. This is just the beginning and I have A LOT more to go. I'm not passing judgement on it until I see it in the woods though. Here's how it started out. Once it's completely finished I'll post a pic of it in action. Then you'll either be truley amazed...or spit coffee all over your monitor.

Pretty ingenious dude. Can't wait to the the end product. Just a tip, Take some pics with the camara aimed up through the branches in the tree so you get a bit of a skyline shot to incorporate into your pattern.
