  • The 7 S’s of Camouflage

    The 7 S’s of Camouflage

    (featured image – Raw War, Carlisle) Can’t remember how many there are to be honest, so I’ll go with the 7 that i can remember/may have made up. These are the things you need to think about in the field. Having a good ghillie suit or camouflage system is only half of the battle. You need…

  • Getting colours right

    Getting colours right

    How do you go about getting colours to match the environment you play in? One of the most common issues with a lot of suits, although brilliantly made to add depth and texture, is simply getting the colours wrong. A ghillie colour matched perfectly even with no decoration will work better than a well constructed…

  • The Ghillie Guide

    The Ghillie Guide

    The complete ghillie building guide. I’ve been working on a few little camouflage articles lately, but decided that instead of having lots of seperate articles to flick through, I’d just put them all in one place, and have one resource to help you build a suit from scratch, or help develop your current one.

But I don’t think it’s fair to label us snipers as lazy, or campers.…

  • Observations from Sniperworks One

    It’s fair to say that Sniperworks One went really well for all parties involved. It’s also been a very interesting learning experience for us all and we’ve had plenty to talk about as a result. Even personally, as a sniper of plenty of experience at a variety of events, this has been a learning curve,…

  • The Point6 Loadout Challenge; Part 1 – Budget Loadout

    I’ve been set a challenge by Point6 Airsoft, to put together three different loadouts for an airsoft sniper, on very different budgets. It’s a good opportunity to delve into some kit articles and discuss different approaches, so I’ve accepted. Point6 will do videos (link at bottom) , I’ll blog it, and we’ll discuss ideas the…

  • Introducing Sniperworks

    After a lot of planning, and announcing a series of sniper weekend events in the early autumn of 2018, I’m pleased to announce Sniperworks to the world. This is a collaboration between myself and a few guys from the local sites, along with support and input from players across Europe, to put an event together…
