How To Make Camo Cloaks For Your Miniatures Ghillie Suit 

Excellent work, my dude. I would advise using a shaper tool rather than a brush when using it with PVA (White glue) as it's just as good & much easier to clean afterward. Constantly use a shaper for flocking too Thanks again, man

Great video! I am new to model painting and Warhammer 40K...been looking for a unique way to make some of my models stand out. The realism of the cloak and ghille suit is incredible! The cheesecloth looks very similar to the burlap used in homemade suits! Well done!!

I have a bunch of metal scouts and I was searching for a way to do camo cloaks. This is awsome!

Great tutorial! Thank you!

Such an awesome tutorial! I’ve been looking everywhere to much a cloak like this. I’ve been looking at using green stuff but this idea is a million times better

Well this'll help whenever I do get around to Horus Heresy Recon Squads - cheers!

Ive done something very similar on my Guard armour. Never thought to do it on the infantry though. 👍

It is so easy and so cool. Thx for this tutorial

1st time I've seen this. I had no idea you did a video tutorial. Thanks for the props. BEEF

this is more like camo netting than an actual ghillie suit... looks cool and not sure how one would make a true ghillie suit for over armor since they're basically bdu's that have a net sewn into the back and then dyed canvas strips tied to the netting.

Would you do this before or after painting the mini?

Theres better Mesh! I started WH40K and was playinga Cadian Army, (like 5th Ed), Years Ago!,.... with a Tau and SpaceMarine Junky. I got tired of them dropping Templates on my Squads, found a better-ghille suit for my Dudes: Local Craft-store is Hobby Lobby! Used some of thier Bricks in Terrain-buildings/ Projects. REAL Adobe Bricks. The little-bastards come glued to a sheet of Mesh. Just pull-off the Bricks'. That Mesh makes a KILLER Ghuille-suit! Used CVA, and flocking of Choice! Really Killer! Try it! Used yours too, but found the cheesecloth too fiddly and stringy for My Tastes. Same Methods though! Killer- Tutorial! Thanks for the Video bro!

Can you remove it without degrading the figurine ? ( i mean if you fail at placng it, can you replace it ? )

I have been using dried oregano to make my camo cloaks, this seems less messy

Harness your inner Bevis?

So this technique is very awesome, but maybe it would be better to place the Camo on the miniature and then soke it in glue, maybe with a brush.

Going blanke mode.

O.o
