Product Information

Developed by Evolution Airsoft these 1Kg Bag of 0.28G BBsare great standard BBs for regular Skirmishers and Airsoft players who are looking to get great performance from their Airsoft gun. 0.28g BB are commonly used as a Regular to AdvancedPlayerweight ofBB, and are great for outdoor gameplay, allowing them to punch through bushes, grass, and more stable in wind. These BBs are perfect for use in Airsoft guns operating over 320fps, or for upgraded guns with an effective hop-up unit. Movement is the easiest element of visual perception to grasp the concept of. Anything that moves catches your eye because movement is one of the biggest disturbances to a baseline. The human eye is strongly attracted to any movement. The sniper physically moving will attract the observer’s attention, and the sniper brushing against vegetation can cause the vegetation to move which can attract the observer’s attention. The easiest way of doing this part is to grab a partner and work together. You should only need a partner for about 5 minutes, so you aren’t asking them of much. Have your partner drape the netting over your shoulders, and hot glue little cross-sections onto the blouse.

I was originally going to use these photos as an example of improper use of shadows, so for now, ignore the fact that my face is casting a large shadow. In this position, I was laying on my belly and am resting on my elbows. Notice how my lower body has a tan grass covering and my upper body is covered in green grass. I did this because the baseline color of this environment is about 50% tan and 50% green. I didn’t want to be a huge green spot or a huge brown spot. The two colors I chose match perfectly with the environment and the baseline. The only element of visual perception that isn’t used properly here is the element of shadow, so cover the dark spot with your finger and notice how my outline and shape is impossible to determine, and the colors match the baseline perfectly so that I do not draw attention to myself. Contrast / Value A Ghillie Suit can be made of fabrics, camo netting, foliage, fibers/twines. You can use these to make a full body ghillie suit or something like a Poncho. Some people also prefer making only the top part of the ghillie suit and skip the bottoms. The first step in making a veil is to cut a straight line on the brim across the forehead. This will prevent the Boonie from casting a dark shadow on your face while wearing the veil. Next, grab a scrap piece of netting and zip tie them onto the loops of the Boonie. (my zip ties are camo, look closely).

To prep the 550 cord, ill break this down into a few steps. First, cut about 100 pieces of 550 cord in anywhere from 12”-24” sections. When you have that massive pile of 550 cord strands, remove the 7 white strings inside, known as the “550 guts”. Fun fact about 550 cord that some people do not know; the 7 strands of white string in the guts are all rated at 50lb test. The hollow tubular shell that the guts are contained In, is rated at 200lb test. Altogether, you have 550lb test paracord. Hence the name, 550 cord. In a pinch, you could remove a few strands of the 550 guts to make much longer yet weaker cordage. Anyway, we won’t be needing the 550 guts, so either throw them away or put them aside. The texture is the feel, appearance, or consistency of a surface or substance. Like color, texture has a baseline also. If an object has a surface that contrasts with its surroundings, it becomes noticeable. An Object with a smooth surface reflects light and becomes more noticeable than an object with a rough surface that casts shadows upon itself. Very smooth objects tend to become shiny and reflective. This is something to keep in mind when trying to get the right contrast and value for your environment.

Rhythm and Flow is my favorite of the 9 elements of visual perception. Many of these elements, such as color, are simply science. Your color(s) either match the baseline or they don’t. With Rhythm and Flow, you begin to steer away from the science of camouflage and dive deep into the art of camouflage. Do you, as a ghillie, blend beautifully with the environment? Does your suit bow to the wind like a light breeze rolling over a wheat field? Notice in the images above, you see parts of my outline. Most noticeably, the vertical line which is my left ribs, left pectoral, and the horizontal line made by my left arm. You also very easily see the “V” made by my left armpit. Even through a bush, with a camouflage shirt on, this “V” is easily noticeable. After spotting this “V”, and part of my body’s outline, it becomes easy to see that this is the top left portion of a human body. Your environment has a baseline of color. The greater your color contrasts with the baseline color, the more visible you become. This is especially true when that color is not natural for that area. It can be difficult to identify an object strictly off its color, but incorrect color can attract the eye of an observer and lead him to scrutinize the object in question. I stand corrected on the amount, however, that's inconsequential. It's not the amount that matters, it's what they mean to those that got them and why they got them.

Notice this ghillie suit is mostly tan. Tan is a good light base color. You can always darken your suit in the field, by attaching vegetation or getting your suit dirty. But if you have a dark base color like green, it’s hard to lighten that up when going through a tan field of wheat/goldenrod. This is probably the most difficult task you’ll face in building your own ghillie suit. This works much, much better if you can get a partner to help you. Now I took the same veil that I was wearing in the “color” photos and made a good texture example. Imagine wearing a grassy ghillie suit with the texture of a leafy bush. While they can be the exact same color, your outline and shape are broken up correctly, your contrast/value is blended correctly but if your texture is off you will look out of place. Notice how the grassy veil doesn’t really blend well with the round, splotchy texture of the bush. Now on the next photo, I dropped the grassy veil onto the ground. Look how much better that texture matches up. Rhythm and Flow Produced by VORSKAirsoft, these Airsoft BIOBBs are precision engineered 6mmBBs which are designed to be used in a wide range of Airsoft guns andreplicas. These BBs are part of the VORSKs brand new range of Airsoft BBs ranging from light weight BBs for beginner Airsoft players, all the way up to super heavyweight BBs for professional players and snipers. As I mentioned earlier in “color”, this picture (left) was originally taken to show improper use of shadow. This dark shadow, looks unnatural and is an anomaly in the baseline of the environment. This draws the observer’s eye toward this spot. The picture on the left was taken from about 12 feet away. The picture on the right was taken about 200 yards away. See how that dark shadow is such an anomaly in the baseline, that it draws your eye to it?

A shape is the visual characteristic surface configuration of an object. When lines and edges come together, you will see the outline. Study the outline, and you will notice the shape, and determine what the object is. In these photos, I took some of the reeds and bound them tightly so that they won’t bend in the wind. Notice how all the other reeds are bowing more to the right, but mine are still perfectly vertical? This can be mitigated in two ways. One, you can break some of the reeds on your body so they become weaker and have a broken bending point. Or, the other option is that you loosen the bungee or tie-down so that the reeds can move more freely. You need to be careful though that they don’t fall, or that will create some serious movement that will surely catch the observer’s eye. A Cotton constructed Concealment Veil for Airsoft Snipers, which is placed over the head to add shadows, texture and depth to your visible profile, and to keep you hidden from enemy sight. These will more than likely be a mix of permanent additions to the game, as well as more 'event' based items that will appear during set windows as free DLC (Even these will reappear and won't be a one and done scenario).

Thanks for the advice, think the umbrella idea is a good one, think I will use that idea in my sniper impression. Looking for a good repro of a German sniper veil, does anyone know anyone out there who makes them or a dealer. Contrast is a difference or strong dissimilarity between two compared objects. Value is the tone of something, the darkness or lightness of color. This can be easily confused with the element of color, however, color is more so choosing the right color to match your environment, and contrast/value is understanding how being darker or lighter can draw attention to yourself. Again, this ghillie suit is just a simple base idea. Tailor this suit to you and your environment. Add more jute, add more 550, some people take burlap sandbags and shred them up, using scraps to add texture to their suit. If you’re only going to be in a hayfield or fields of goldenrod, include much more tan than green. As you can imagine ghillie suits can be very hot and increase the risk of overheating, especially when layers of vegetation are added. One of the only thing more dangerous than passing out from overheating is passing out from overheating while literally nobody can find you! I have seen this happen before and it can be deadly. I recommend never stalking alone. Consider using something like a find my phon” app so that you can be located in case of emergency.
