Trad Camo
 

In the spirit of keeping things simple, I made these the other day... Not to bad IMO.. I'm working on another set with a different pattern.... Best thing is it's cheap!! $9.99 for the pants at walmart and $5 worth of shoe polish....... I used the lightest weight pants I could find at walmart.... I'm looking for a cheap, very thin top to go with it....

wow i'd never even thought of making homemade asat... i would assume that's what you were going for right???

Hunter06FlKy,

I wasn't initally going for the ASAT look, but it did end up sort of similar.....

My initial thought was to take the color of a deer(brown/khaki) and then add some limbs to blend it in..... Looks decent....

Here is a set I just finished which is supposed to resemble a bobcat.... Didn't really turn out the way I had planned....I'm going to take some in the field pics though and see how it looks in the woods....

RE: Trad Camo
 

What kind of paint are you using ?

RE: Trad Camo
 

It's shoe polish....... The kicker is going to be what happens when I wash it!! We'll find out......

that is a a great idea you have there. i never thought of making your own camo. If ya post some pics of ya wearing it in the woods I might even try to make some. great way to think outside the box.:D

They look good and should work...Movement is the main thing. Fred Bear never wore any camo and killed more animals with a bow than any of us will with our fast compounds and all of our camos that we have. I have tons of camo myself..it is a confidence deal more than anything. Sit still and don't move
