Poll coming soon.

Notes:

Ghilie suits are disallowed.
Assume that the setting will be woodland, whether it's Canadian/American, Western European, Central European, or somewhere else is up to you.

I'm wearing all black. And it's night time, since I'm out. This is what you get when you don't info on what the poll is about. ;)

I'm color blind. I can see people wearing camouflage as though they were normal clothes.

sure if they were standing out on a street corner with forest camo. but even if your color blind the colors would still blend together.

MARPATs. Those are the best digitals on earth. You should've made a note that MARPATs are the digitals worn by the USMC. I'm under the impression that 95+% of the people don't know what MARPATs are unless you call them digitals.

Finnish winter camouflage. All white. Global warming is a conspiracy against Finland. They want to make our superior camo useless. >:(

I know nothing. I just like to reply.

One of the things in this picture is a towel. Your guess is as good as mine.

That's understandable. I often misplace my car in car parks. I expect that being camo painted would just make it worse.

A hippie attached to my back...it will make me look like a hippie smoking weed in a field as I crawl trough it...those hippies are excellent camo.

I still say Ghuille-suit is the best, it's adaptable, unlike those others that are specialized for the individual terrain that is most common. Your Ghuille-suit you can specialize on the fly...well if you've got a bit of time...

Since I've never tried to spot a soldier crawling about in the wilderness, I can't tell you which is best.

I can tell you though that the Flecktarn suits always looked cooler than those worn by US Soldiers stationed in Germany.

But I'd also suspect that these digital designs would be very hard to spot.

I've only really seen the US and Australian camo from International and local TV (as well as the Oz local troops where I am). As for the best, no idea.
