How I get the BEST results for the Novritsch Ghillie

[@silly_ghillie]

This was a great video and the suit works well with your adjustments! That cotton you are useing was the thing that made it almost invisible

[@stutterairsoft8437]

I always learn the most from your sniping & ghillie vidoes! Love them! A proper Mr Miyagi in crafting 🙏

Daniel saaaan!

[@davidoftheforest]

this is straight up art. I spend much of my time in the forest and about a month ago I found SC Ghillie images on Google while looking up leaf suit ideas. Then I found out about Halo screens and just today I came across your channel. I'm definitely gonna spruce up my homemade ghillie suits and backpack covers. You've given me so many ideas and tips. Thank you for these videos

It will def come in handy for keeping my gun new and original black colour!

Appreciate that! Some pros and cons on both systems etc. which would take a while to explain so will take an episode in itself!

Nice video bro I like the crafting paint good idea

[@Akastaten]

Need to make up some "felt tip" pens premixed so people can colour their suits!

[@ManiaAirsoft]

Not a bad idea

[@owenhanna9178]

Did you mix the acrylic ink with water?

[@Akastaten]

Yes to get a less saturated colour

[@danielp4206]

Great vid! Do you think that the shoulder piece would work almost as well as the full ghillie?

[@Akastaten]

I run a crafted chestrig which covers the area the shoulder piece doesn’t so it wouldn’t be too important for me. I’ve ran the Stalker Combat Cape a few times and it’s kinda the same shape

[@smoutezot]

What inks are you using? How can i find the same colours?

[@MrSkorm]

Would the brown ink not gradually wash off in wet conditions? Or is it a dye? Not sure what I'm supposed to buy to copy this.

[@Akastaten]

Brown ink won’t wash out no. You don’t want to lose the highlights so don’t turn the white dark

[@cagelexi8954]

Can you do a review on the kreuzotter ghillie? Can't find videos anywhere

[@Akastaten]

Yeh I can ask Nov about them

[@MEANLILSHT]

Great job!

[@Akastaten]

Thanks man

[@mmusic9194]

Hey, where can I get the ink you useid?

[@apapav1]

Which pattern would you recommend for most environments as a base?

[@Akastaten]

That’s a tough one. In that case you want the one that’s most boring to the eye so it doesn’t attract attention. Also check out the MIMtech suits on Skirmshop.co.uk / .nl They are reversible so give you more colour options.

[@brianseniow1566]

Hello, what is the name of the brush dye you use . Thank you for your answer.

[@Akastaten]

Acrylic ink

[@Timber_LXG_5]

What do you use to "ink" just curious

[@danielhrin9279]

Great video! I am thinking about buying multicam rifle wrap and painting it with some dark brown acrylic ink so it wont be that bright. Do you think that it might be good?

[@Akastaten]

Yeh don’t darken it’s too much., just change the tone of it if you need to

[@jackal187]

Very nicely done 👍,

[@Akastaten]

Thanks dude!!!

[@Meinleibe]

I used acrylic paint mixed with water to paint my suit, is that okay or should I use acrylic ink over it?

[@Akastaten]

As long as it doesn’t make the highlights dark. You want the highlights and lowlights for a bit of contrast

[@Meinleibe]

@@Akastaten thanks, also I got the nov LC1 leaves In fern and as of right now the paint and the leaves are the only thing on my suit, what else should I add to make it better?

[@Akastaten]

@@Meinleibe depends your site. Haloscreen is very effective. The leaves can look too uniform so peel the leaves off the stems and cable tie them on

its called acrylic ink. I usually get off amazon. I do mix the colours to get it just right though!

Hi, I bought a ghillie from a chinese website. And it looked like the same as this one. Except for the mesh. But the leafs are the same. What do you think of the quality of the leavestrips? And since you probably have a kickingmustang ghillie too: How is are the mesh bases from both of them? Are they different? regards

[@Akastaten]

leafstrips are ok. The mesh is obviously way better on the Nov than the cheap suits. The mesh on the Nov suit is very strong but heavier and feels warmer.

[@iamveenstra]

​@@Akastaten im asking because i want to buy a ghillie and im doubting between kmcs and nov. But good to hear that the mesh is way better than on the cheap suits. Thnx for youre fast response

Did you pick a winner for the painted sniper stock?

[@Akastaten]

No ill do an insta live this weekend. I have loads to give away!!!

[@iC4Nt]

I bought the half / open chest ghillie from Novritsch. and used the Halo Screen from skirmshop to fill the open spaces at my suit. combined with using different kind of leafs all over the suit. Good Basic suit, but need to spend some time in it to get it working very good. they changed the material of the leafs now. they make quiet more noise now because the material is thicker and i guess does they withstand more. But you need to wet them or to paint them like in the first half of the video, that they get more soften. The white in the amber isnt that good for me so i did that too.

[@Akastaten]

Yeh you can ink your suit in patches also to create nice macro patterns for your halo to go on top. The New brown haloscreen/Nanoscreen garlands are out now in NL and will be hitting U.K. soon!

the white recreates sun shining on leaves ... it is necessary

[@Akastaten]

@@myname-mz3lo ISO luminance is key. You could just create a leaf with correct reflectance. So if you are the sun it recreates the white but in the shadows it doesn’t light up white
