The time has finally come. After a year or so of this "sniping" business, it has become quite clear that a ghillie is something I overlooked. For now I have started with just the head. The rest of the suit is to be made in the near future, perhaps this winter when I have more time. But for now the head piece suits me just fine.

First thing I did when I finished making it was go outside, throw some dirt on it, and soak it with water. After letting it live outside for a couple days I decided it was good.

(The grass had been in the head piece for a day, so it had mostly wilted or fallen out)

I had extra burlap after I finished the head piece so I went ahead and made a rifle wrap.

I made the kill flash and cover for the suppressor out of some weird vietnam era mosquito netting.

Please give me feedback! I would like to know what you think.

Looks good, I wouldnt change a thing, I am not a fan of the jute on the gun so the wrap breaks up the color nice, What is the head piece made out of ? Boonie cap?

I think it is a very sexy loadout, keep everything BUT - I would weather the jute on the gun or even better make a wrap and weather that - besides the hat is perfect - its the sex man. -

Thank you sirs! Yes, I agree the wrap could use some weathering. I'm sure Ill make some changes to it over time. And yes the head piece was made from a boonie cap.

The wrap needs to be ripped up a bit and let the jute fray a tad here and there. It will give it more poof and help with the blend. Besides that looking good!
