I made a ghillie cape with a 2 metre by 1 metre camo pattern net. I used lots (hundreds literally lol) 1 foot lengths of both brown and dark green jute lengths which I threaded through the holes in the net (so there would be 6 inches hanging off when I tied them on) and then some tan coloured fake leaves sparsely spread out on it also. I just used some shoelaces to keep it together across my chest and to create sleeve cuffs at the top ends to fit my hands through to hide my arms. It took me over 3 weeks of 2 to 3 hours an evening after work to complete it. The headgear was a camo baseball cap with some more of the same net and twine and leaves attached to it and I used a camo wire mask to save my lower face and goggles for my eyes. It was cheap to do but took ages and some tweaking along the way but it works. I once had a games marshal nearly trip over me only that he saw my boots lol. Different sites require different patterns so it's good to have maybe a few different suits to be ready for more than one. Cheers for the video!!
I recently bought a premade ghillie and it worked pretty well but not the best for my environment this video has helped alot in the process of building my own
Nice video. I was able to pick you out every time. If you think about it, rotting damp leaves are usually under dryer leaves. So those darker brown spots look like the leaves have been disturbed. I would probably place the darker color under the lighter colors and maybe ziptie a few small sticks to the suit.
Using electrical flush cutters will help prevent sharp spots that wil cut the skin at any time. They can be found on many sites. Micro Flush Cutters are going to flush cut flat with the knuckle of the tie.
my friend invite me to a surprise airsoft site and thinking it would be great to use my ghillie suit with very well veg on it.... ended up using my blue jeans and gray shirt.. ....site was an abandon building well suited for CQB.
This is BRILLIANT sadly i spent years collecting allsorts of junk, hessian, wool, cloth leaves, ripped cloth you name it for my suit. But I may be getting one of your kits as I am converting a pair of my old service overalls into a ghillie.👍
Do you have some recommendations on a few general acrylic ink colors for all seasons? Thanks in advance if you get time to answer. Also, love your videos! -Wombat
In the winter crafting kit Ive just received it hasnt got the dark dark brown leafs. Would you still recommend using dark dark brown on the base layer with a dyed macro pattern? Or use the 3d leafs instead?
Great question. I don’t really make suits like this so am not an expert by any means. Check out the Instagram account proapto . They make some nice jute/rafia suits which seem to work great in these environments
I have a question about the brown color (what exactly is that), you can't buy the box, it's no longer available to buy everywhere, now I've cut all the scraps of fabric myself at home.
@@silly_ghillie Okay, thank you very much for the quick answer, so what you distribute with the brush is also dye for cotton. I already thought that there was something else to come by then, mine will be ready, but I'll still order a box. I've been there all the time I'm thinking about what scope I should buy because you have a good tip.
Hey do you mean the KMCS suit? They are available from Empire Airsoft. Link to the suits is in the description of this video. I’ll be at driverwood possibly this Sunday
I've got a question since i'm from germany and don't get hands on a KMCS. The enviroment on the fields i'm playing on are mostly like Phoenix Airsoft around march. So my plan is to go for the Novritsch ghilly, inking it with light brown (color like muddy water), working with the brown cotton leafs (around 70% to 80%), the green AGM mesh (around 20% to 30%) and some raffia. Will this fit in the enviroment or do you have some other advices/any tips? Greets from germany!
I NEED someone’s help please I want a suit really bad I just don’t have the money to buy a $200 suit just to not make it good. Is there any good durable suits to craft off of for Ohio when there is green starting to come on the trees where the ground is still bright but the trees are green🙏🙏✝️ no one has given me a good answer they just keep saying $200 suits so anything under $100 Thank u❤
Do you know where I can find similar products in the US? I have been trying to find a kit like yours for the upcoming hunting season and these materials are hard to find!!
I am planning to do this changes to my leafsuit. I got 2 concerns before starting: wont the dark inc make my suit to dark, so that I become a dark ball on the field, that is easily spotted? is there a seaon, where the grey brown fits perfectly into the middle european forest?
Hi. There is no ink in the updated version. There is dark colours of AGM instead. The grey brown is specifically designed for European winter forests. See the end of the video for a field test. Thank you for the interest!
@@silly_ghillie thanks for the quick answer. I got a kmcs and bought the burned umber ink via amazon. I didnt knew there was an updated winter crafting kit. If I understand you correctly, the agm shall be used for the darker colors, but the brown ink is still good to make the brown kmcs fit better in the european forest overall?
@@silly_ghillie will do. I think this is the first airsoft ghillie video that mentions the macro pattern (imo this is more important than the micro pattern). I thought doing about 1/3 of the suit in green and 2/3 in light and dark browns. I hope the result is a suit that does well all year, when modified with natural veg while playing and maybe slight changes in the green/brown amount.
@@silly_ghillie the ink is only applied to the back of the suit, so the belly will remain lighter. The original grey brown of the suit is perfect for european winter forests?
I am having trouble figuring out what to get as far as colors. I'm trying to craft my own for the sierra Nevada area. I can't seem to find the right material for my area. What can you recommend?
loving the video, this pack is a game changer!!!
Thanks man! Better find a nice series on Netflix! 🤣
I have a cunning plan it’s called bribery with beer
Tried this to my dog and I haven't seen him for more than 4 weeks now
😂 wow great
Doggo missing, Nooooooooooo😢
But the dog sees you
Have you found him
I dont play airsoft (just watch videos about it) but was always wondering how these ghillies are made. Thank you very much - it was quite interesting!
No problem

60 year old Australian gramma here, not sure why I watched this video but it was fascinating! Love your videos! Sniping is definitely my jam 👍
Brilliant tutorial, thank you I'm itching to get started on my suit
Great vid. One of the best crafting videos I have seen
Thanks man!
I found you on tiktok so I search your youtube, Good stuff man.
Same here lol
Fantastic video mate. Will help all levels of ability with crafting. The colours are on point. Got to be one of the best crafting videos I have seen.
I hope so! Thank you Adam for the continued support ❤️

Cracking video dude! If you eventually release you own range of leaf suits please call them silly suits.
Silly custom ghillie? Or just SCG maybe
@@silly_ghillie Custom Silly Ghillies 🙂
Best vid on crafting a ghillie!
Thank you for this man, it helps very well. all the advices, the patience and the explains from you are helpful for me, when i Start crafting.
I have a grass lands ghille suit and recently bought a cheap suit at a yard sale that I'm adding leafy texture to for the woods and edge of the woods
Sweet video to accompany this kit, shall watch again when mine arrives. Nice work 👌

Such a great video, cannot wait to get mine this week‼️

Great tutorial pal, I'll try this on some of my suits :)
Tahst crazy, I don't play or anything but I'm super Impressed
Thats simply great, i’m absolute gonna get one box when it will be restock!
This is a great pack ,just ordered it for my cheap ghille .great video for the crafter like how yours blends with the terrain
great video! gonna try this to my own kmcs. are you planing to do video about summer ghillie tutorial (green leaves) ?
I am indeed

Great vid mate
great job !motivating
Such a informative video
00:20 he literally picked up an invisible suite, then set it down back to invisible
Nice kit!
Very nice job
That was OP 😍
Such a great video, i enjoyed it very much. but where do you get the suit to put all the stuff on?.
Brilliant watch
16:10 Holy Shit, thats impressive.
You should review the Carcajou Tactical Badger Hood
Awesome Tutorial :)
Great tips
Fiz um traje guillie com tela juta para os padrões do Brasil! Mas esse ficou muito bom!
great vid on macro patterns, but does the cotton add a lot of weight to the suit/ make it heavier.
Not really. It’s only fabric. The KMCS is already super lightweight already to be honest
My son picked up on the shape of the shoe, perhaps look at removing the shape of the sole by overlapping some more cloth/grass?
Lovely vid man
Thanks bud
When is the rif wrap video coming?:

Браво! Привет из Москвы,
Hi mate, if you’re using a balaclava what do you do with the hood? Do you tuck it inside the back or what?
In the winter crafting kit Ive just received it hasnt got the dark dark brown leafs. Would you still recommend using dark dark brown on the base layer with a dyed macro pattern? Or use the 3d leafs instead?
Hello. So for the summer leaf suit we can do brown macro areas and the rest is halo screen green fabric? Would it work?
Can the suit be purchased allready crafted? Understandably the price would double or more but I’m just curious.
Can u use the same technique in a pine forest? I live in Scandinavia and it's more pine forest or mixed but not as much pure leaf forest
Great question. I don’t really make suits like this so am not an expert by any means. Check out the Instagram account proapto . They make some nice jute/rafia suits which seem to work great in these environments
@@silly_ghillie they look good but are quite pricy 😂

Hey! I’m honoured but no. These suits are really not as complicated as you think. Hopefully the video will make it clear!

But i was wondering if you could give me advice on my own ghillie
Its not a kmcs sadly Hopefully you can still help me
Hey dm me on Insta so you can show me where you are at
@@silly_ghillie ok sir
I will do it first thing tomorrow
If you're starting from a different base like say just MARPAT, would you still do the inking process at the start?
Depends on the environment you are in.
Would you ever think of taking a commission every so often and making one for someone
👋🏻👀👍🏻
the pack dont have enough
