Coolest Camo

[natehale1971]

There was a Swiss camo pattern that had a lot of red in it, an looked a little like flames or long grass with black and other colors interwoven... I've been looking for a picture of it for years... i used it as the camo pattern for body armor in a 2300ad game after i had saw it in a US Cavalry catalog when i was in the navy (1989-1994).

Well, saw a strange camo outfit in, of all the werid places, the local mall. I must admit, pink, black and white was a rather odd combo, but she looked good in it!

It allows her to blend into the background when she's shoplifting.

This one?

Commonly called Alpenflage or Leibermuster by collectors, proper name appears to be Kampfanzug 57 or Tarnanzug 83 (TAZ 83)

Unfortunately, that's not the one I've been looking for. I remembered it was actually called Industrial Camouflage. The Swiss Cammies are great, i love those...

I wish i could find the old artwork i had done with the body armor done in the patterns that I was wanting to get a really good example of it. The colors were red, black, blue-gray, light gray. It was suppose to be used by snipers in industrial areas i think.

Hmmm, you're not making this easy are you!
Given the colours you mentioned, the nearest I can find is this one but it's nothing more than the BDU type pattern done by some US civilian company

Or this one, a Russian design made for their Ministry of Extraordinary Situations (i.e. Emercom - civil defence/emergency response organization)


I can't find any references on the net to an urban/industrial sniper cam with red colours

Believe me, I know.

I've been looking for the pattern for years now. I even asked US Cavalry if they had the swatch patch pictures still, and they didn't have them.

Thus I have been tearing through all my old artwork looking for the original drawings to try and find the pictures of the pattern so i can use that, but so far no luck in finding them. it's been a real pain...
