Post subject:  USCM camo Pattern

I am a hobby tactical gear maker and I'm looking to have my next project be a modern plate carrier in USCM.

I am in the process of making USCM armour camo pattern. I have been looking at the examples on here and what I can find online. From what I can tell there is no #1 example.

My take on it. I have swapped out the Humbrol colours for real world camo pallet. I have used M81 Woodland as the base with (Camo Green 483, Coyote Brown 498, Black, Brown, and light grey)

from what i have some up with is there any suggestions to refine this pattern or is there a tutorial/example that I am not aware of ?( I did search first)

let me know what you think

tyia

the pattern is meant to scale to the size of the armour.
I found this one I like and have biased a design off of it, still playing around

Post subject:  Re: USCM camo Pattern

well this rig sold quickly. Im going to make another one and pair it with this hoodie I had made for airsoft.

just need to add velcro to the arms for patches. not screen accurate but its my take on multi-cam

multi-cam vs multicam

Micgear, I'd be interested in a carrier if you do any more. This thing is awesome! Let me know and keep us posted!

Post subject:  Re: USCM camo Pattern

Going through the process of doing the USCM uniform.
I know with the armour there was color codes do such a thing exist for the uniform?

I am using a custom ERDL pattern as the base and trying to match it to chefs creations pics I found online.
its not a 100% match pattern wise but its my own take on it.

My plan is to have this made into a hoodie.
