What works best here?

Hey Guys. Me Again with another question

What Camouflage would work the best in this environment

Just a Grassy field with some overhead trees. I want to get some camo that works here for a scene in my movie, I want my actor to be totally hidden somewhere. The movie takes place in the early 60's so Im torn between Flecktarn, Tiger Stripe, CADPAT, and British DPM, in that order. (to me DPM looks like someone took a dump on some leaves and made it a camo pattern)

I know CADPAT wasnt around back then, but its just for school, so shouldnt be too bad for time consistencies. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Vietnam Tiger stripe, not the modern version, but the classic stuff from the 60's would work quite well there.

SKI · July 14th, 2006, 19:45

To be honest with you, it looks like plain OD would work in that environment.

MrEvolution · July 14th, 2006, 19:57

Plain OD, Gotta see what I can find.

Whats the difference between classic Tiger and the modern one?

Trader rating · July 14th, 2006, 19:59

The pattern is a bit different an the colors are different.

MrEvolution · July 14th, 2006, 20:23

is Vietnam Darker/Lighter?

Any other opinions are welcome.

Gordon · July 14th, 2006, 22:40

I'd just wear CADPAT.

Trader rating · July 14th, 2006, 22:42

cadpat, without question.

DIMES · July 14th, 2006, 23:08

cadpat

He said his movie is dated in the 60's.... no Cadpat then.

OD does work well.

(Be damned sure you got all the right permits to shoot a movie, if not you could be looking at MAJOR grief)

1- John Wayne dense pattern (most common replica)

2-Late war lightweight sparse pattern

3- Silver tadpole

4- Gold Tiger ADS

dont get camo thats too effective, or you will only be filming the bush.

tiger stripe or dpm id say. but good ol od would be best for a 60s movie.

Plain 'ole OD should work alright, but I agree with Goldman on the classic tiger stripe.
