LOL I just smeared the crap on my face with those awful hard tubes that you used to have to heat up with a lighter when I was in the Infantry. drew some lines with various colors and called it a day. Then would spend days finding the crap in various locations around my face after getting back from deployment.
Hahaha! YOU FOOL! They are not leaving! They are simply becoming invisible! The guy was putting CAMOUFLAGE on them! At some point, they just became too difficult to see! Jesus! Some people are so dumb! SHEESH!
The way he talks while he paints... He is the Army Bob Ross. Edit* To those who think he was in the Army, he was actually in the Air Force. (Also so was I)
First guy looks like he eats hand grenades for breakfast. Second guy questions his career choice after a joint or two. Third guy a bit worried the UK paint will look less bad ass. And lastly the instructor having a little to much fun finger painting.
lmao the second guy reminds me of a pigeon and not just because he kinda resembles one but because he even goes as far to look around confused as a pigeon would do
I'm ex UK infantry. Light and shadow. You can break up the natural lines and contours with a basic stick of brown - light and dark. Less is more. Every round has to count with limited resources ;-) 1st example, followed both sides of his nose, so there is still a symmetry / pattern ... "snap" ... brains all over the foliage - clean that up soldier! 2nd example, not bad, but too much maintenance if you're in the field for longer than a weekend jolly. 3rd example, too symmetrical, pulling out from the centre draws the eye to that centre point, which would be right above your nose and between the eyes ... clap clap bravo ... "snap" ... clean up aisle 3! I'll still go with what I learned, use your natural skin colour as light and dark as well instead of completely synthesizing, but go across and down, not just pulling from the centre, I used to cover most finger tips in brown and then drag in several directions (pretend you're being dragged through a bush!), touching up for areas missed too badly. Job done, we're Oscar Mike. PS: you'd have bug eyes like that if you'd not slept for the last 36 hours! ;-)
In Germany we paint our faces completely green for operations in forests and then use three or four fingers with black color to create angled stripes on top of the green. That way, when looking though the scope of your gun, the stripes are aligned vertically, since in nature vegetation does not usually grow horizontally. This method makes is possible to quickly camouflage your face and to maintain it, as the camouflage can wear off rather quick depending on the environment. Application of this camouflage style can be done by yourself, in less that 10 seconds, for trained people.
@gilbert martinez how do you recognize an antisemite? He will tell you on every occasion. Classic example of "shit conservatives say, that would be awesome, if it was true". Fuck off.
I had exactly the same thought, the Korean method seems to be the best theoretical approach because of its simplicity and effectiveness. It probably works especially well in jungle or European woods, you blend into the viney surroundings, like ferns, with those diagonal stripes.
@@Zyczu55 Colour is not as important as the guy in the video clearly explains. It's the pattern that matters. Like the guy said: the human eye can detect the shape of a human face. This fact counts even in low light conditions where colour would be of little importance. The pattern on the Korean one is clearly superior in this video.
@@Vidhur Yes, I agree that pattern matters but you cant go in green to this forest i.imgur.com/3ugTVPr.png. That is just an example that color is over pattern, you could be on desert with winter camo but it wouldn't help that much as desert camo. My point is that european woods are bad example because 60% of the time there is no green at all (at least in north part of europe) and the rest of the time its closer to brown than green.
Pretty much how you do it. And also you try to go light around the eyes because having this paint drip down when you start sweating is annoying as fk. At least that was how I did it back in the day of military service.
Usually, it aims to create layers rather than splotches, with mostly a brown. The issue cam cream is darker than seen here, but it's a good generalisation.
I have to admit, the Korean version looks the best. It even blends with the foliage really smooth. The light brown splotches stand out on the remaining two.
Please consider this is the camoflage for a right handed soldier. If you tilt your head to aim with your gun, the stripes should become vertical, not horizontal! Trees are vertical or tall gras is vertical too.
If you are set behind your sights, your face is fairly hidden by your weapon. Your forehead (which should be under your cover) is all that would be exposed.
I'm a korean. I served the Korean military in the 5th infantry div. From my perspective, your rendition of the korean version is superbly done. also, the reason why we usually dont cover the neck is because we usually have additional neck coverings that uses the traditional camouflage pattern, in addition to the chinese collar. On a side note, as a joke, I remember when i was a new recruit, i also put camouflage paint on my teeth (to be funny to other recruits), but my instructor was impressed and gave me merit points.
Ha! Extra points for teeth camouflage. Nice. Also...I worked with the ROK 5th INF Division during TEAM SPIRIT 1986 while I was assigned to the 1/17 INF Buffalo Regiment as part of the US 2nd INF Division. Very cool.
Christopher Larsen awesome! TEAM SPIRIT has since then changed to RSOI (Reception, Staging, Onward Movement and Integration of Forces) when I was in service, and its now called KEY RESOLVE. It didnt happen too often, but every time we interacted with US forces, had a great time. Those guys are great. By the way, thank you for your service.
Likewise, Sea Oh. Thank you for your service! And if you're ever "stateside" here in the USA - be sure to look up One Shepherd. You already know it's challenging...but it's a lot of fun and always good to work with Warriors.
David Carreon He commented that cause he paints, which is relevant to the vid I think most people know bob ross because he paints and not cause he served Kinda annoying when some braindead cornball is calling someone a dumbass
The british army representation i have to say isnt the best or at the least is very outdated. We dont apply lots cam otherwise it shines and makes us easier to spot but we do apply to everwhere on the face apart from above the eyes so when we sweat it doesnt drip in our eyes. Also the steaks are pulled randomly across the face as reppettative patterns are easier to spot too. If you see a modern britsh soldier apply cam it would be far more in detail and if done right you would spot his whole body way before his face. Apart from that, its an interesting video espeacially that you get to see how other armies manage this skill
It looks that way at 20:05, but I think that's because they're standing in front of the truck with it's straight lines and dark shadows. In foliage, the UK method in particular might be superior.
In the UK I wasn't taught this method. I was actually taught to lightly use a base colour like a natural brown brushed across the face to disrupt the natural shadows (Imagine a kids dirty face). Then using a mix of dark and light natural colours flecked across the face to mimic the natural shadows in your environent. If you try to hard to create solid paterns they end up looking really unatural and humans are naturally very talented at picking out patterns in anything. The S. Korean method shown in this is good because the cammo tends to move in one direction. This is something that you would see in a natural environment, as the suns position will cast most shadows in the same direction, at similar lengths.
yeah I was taught that as well for british army. Most Important was to use a darker base colour, even mud if you have nothing else, and cover the skin lightly because oil in the skin makes it shine through, but then he was right about not going over the top with the other colours. Also blend the colour edges a bit because hard edges are generally a bad thing. I was also taught what he said about black-people think black is the perfect nightime camouflage but as he says theres nothing black in nature really, and nightime doesnt turn things black but just a darker shade of the colour it already is.
Agreed. I spent 22 years in the British Army and I'm not convinced that this guy understands our concept at all - ie breaking up natural shapes and shadows - actually using the skin tones as part of the camouflage - all done in the minimum amount of time with the least effort and materials. It strikes me that the American style over-thinks the whole thing. It actually creates patterns, uses way too much cam cream and takes far too long to apply.
Brent - The funny thing is that One Shepherd staff officers have been badgering me to make this video for literally five years! Now looking back at how smoothly it went, I kinda feel guilty not making it sooner. But you and Bruce make the work look easy. (That's my story, and I'm sticking to it!) In the video I make reference to "the five S" of camouflage, but didn't say what they were. I had to look it up, and it turns out that doctrine now calls them "the seven S" of camouflage. They are: 1. Sound - Noise discipline! 2. Speed - Slow movement. The human eye recognizes movement most of all. 3. Silhouette - Don’t skyline yourself against light backgrounds. 4. Surface - Blend your color and texture to the environment. 5. Shape/Size - Look like your surroundings. 6. Spacing - Don’t stick out by using too much camouflage in one spot. 7. Shadow - Be mindful of casting your shadow onto smooth surfaces. Once again, this video will be hung on the One Shepherd website for future use by all newcomers to our Warrior community. Thanks for the great job and a fantastic looking video! - Christopher Larsen
Thank you! This video turned out fantastic! thanks for coming up with the idea to knock this out. Great job! As you can see this video is already a big hit with this audience and I have no doubt will continue to grow.
It wasn't discipline so much as a lack of sleep for the previous 60+ hours. We all just came off a 3 day FTX and had to put our stuff back on. But yeah...I'll take disciplined. That and once you've been around Chris enough, you get used to his humor. He is a funny guy though.
Otto Niittymäki im the reason her body is quaking. So its gonna be like that we’ll have a round of tit for tat whoever wins gets the girl on the bench.
In the U.K., we use green as a base layer, and normally just drag our fingers through the brown and black diagonally across our face. Nothing artistic at all, just get it on however you can. You're going to sweat it all off after one attack anyway mate
I have never seen British soldiers do it this way, as you said it's not an art project, it gets thrown on in battle prep and a lot of the time it does cover the entire face but just not with solid lines between
Was very surprised at how effective the S. Korean was - in that final zoom in with them in the tree line, I was most impressed with the S.K. Need to read up on that more as I had never considered it - until now. Thank you for your time.
Please consider this is the camoflage for a right handed soldier. If you tilt your head to aim with your gun, the stripes should become vertical, not horizontal! Trees are vertical or tall gras is vertical too.
I had an employee (beautiful 18 year old) about 15 years ago who dressed like a “sexy soldier” for Halloween. She asked me to do her camo. Using basic camo logic I applied her makeup. She freaked out. Looking directly at her own face in a mirror she said it was unreal how she felt like she couldn’t see or recognize herself. The principle is to highlight the holes and break up anything that is human. Humans are symmetrical so your makeup can’t be. Nose is high and linear so you need lowlight on tip but also break the vertical line. Eye sockets are deep so lighten them, but also break the recognizable circle. Cheeks are high so darken them. Her face looked flat and unrecognizeable as human. It was pretty amazing. Wish I had a picture to post of it.
What I find interesting is that it's literally the opposite of make-up. In make-up you have to highlight your human features (you highlight the center part above your lips, your nose, your cheekbones, etc.) and try to stay symmetrical, while in camo since you need to destroy the human shape of your face you do the exact opposite.
Yeah well, in this situation you're the idiot here. All that chick wanted was to have a matching "sexy" camo on her face and you decided to show off and paint her face like she's going into war. Moron.
the purpose of camouflage is NOT to not be seen.........but to not be recognized WHEN seen. Humans naturally know what another human looks like . We can see "human shapes" even in clouds. So camouflage is used so that when looked at someone, the looker does not realize he is seeing another human. We tend to focus on eyes nose and mouth, so those shapes must be masked, not just colored, to be properly hidden. People come in a lot of colors so just changing the color of the skin won't do it. The colors must make the human face, NO LONGER look human.......and it CAN be done...but it will take practice ..JMO
is that your comment or did he say that in the video? I forgot and I don't want to watch the whole video again. Or is it maybe a quote from some movie or someone else?
@@ГаврилоПринцип-и7ф it is what I learned from my training.........I have looked at a man's face just 3 meters away, and did not realize he was a man until he spoke to me.......
This information will never be useful to me in any way but it's fascinating and the instructor is great. I have no idea how Mike could sit through this without cracking up laughing even once
Hahaha, it's true, after seeing these patterns and the side by side comparison in the woods at the end methinks I like the Korean solution best. That being said, that dude has probably been awake for quite a while. xD
As an 8 yr vet of the British Army, including a tour of Iraq in 2003, I was never taught to apply cam creme like this. I was always taught , loads of brown in your hand....spit on it .....then apply that as a base layer to hands neck face and ears. Then apply small patches of green or black randomly and fade them into the brown by rubbing around the edges of the patch to create blended depth. That was the same at Catterick, Pirbright or Sennybridge
Andy Davis - Thank you. And let me say up front that the British Army technique I've demonstrated is no longer used. As many British Army veterans have pointed out, the technique I demonstrated in this video is out of date by at least a dozen years. The British technique seems to have changed roughly about 2004. But in my defense, this older technique was in use for the better part of a half century. (Although the older British vets insist I still used too much camo cream!) And yes, as it was taught to me way back in the 1980s, the British Army technique was FAST! Things change over time.
I found the video interesting and well presented . It's just that I joined in 91 did four years, rejoined in 2000 and did another 4 and it was taught to me the same then. Definately the Brits frown on heavy application especially with sharp differences between colours.
Ah. Fair enough. Plenty of US veterans have also insisted that my demonstration of the US method is inaccurate according to the strictest interpretation of the manual. Also fair...but then this technique was taught to me by two NCO instructors at the US Army School of the Infantry at Fort Benning, Georgia in 1985. So, if the schoolhouse, plus all the scientific studies over the past 100 years agree, and this is vindicated through my own combat experience, then I'm going to put my faith in that.
@@christopherlarsen7788 All you have left is for some South Korean dude to tell you your Korean interpretation is incorrect! Think you'll go for a perfect 3 for 3, or are they too busy guarding the DMZ?
No doubt, the Korean camo performed the best in this setting. Would be very interesting to see camo in other settings, such as desert, snow, dried brush, etc :)
To me the british looked best, surprisingly, in the distance picture. His face is a blob, at first i thought he was wearing some sort of veil/face cover. The US seems the worst out of the 3 as i could see eyes in the distance shot, the ROK works well, but its still too symmetrical somehow, it would look odd in nature where symmetry isnt that common, brit really becomes a blob. And i thought that one would be the worst.
For the distance shot there wasn't much brown around them so the US stuck out more. I do think the British one would be best if the covered the whole face that way.
They all are very good. Maybe ROK worked best for the demostration case. His uniform was green and cammo was green/black. Face was just extension of uniform :D
Thanks, Jesse. Sometimes it helps to compare and contrast different solutions to the same problem. What's interesting about these three styles is that they all work from the same base assumptions to solve those identified problems. Now, many people commenting here note (rightfully) that virtually any smeared color on the human face will essentially solve the problem by simply making the human face not appear as human. That's hard to argue against. I agree. But how effective is that approach at near, mid, and long distance? How effective is that approach in each of the various environments - arid, tropic, winter, urban? We've presented three solutions here that are generally accepted as "best practices" that are further substantiated by theory. Yet we recognize that there are, in fact, other solutions as well.
No wars are taking place in the jungle any more. Wars take place in the desert, this is why they have brown/tan colors. They have many more desert variants cause of the change in warfare.
eltenda fabrizio not sure how this is "correct" when the US Army soldier's skills manual states light colors go in dark areas, and dark colors go on light areas such as the forehead, chin, nose, etc.
GeekBoy03 Interestingly enough, that person acting as an instructor has hinted himself in a promotion video that he has no military training. As I remembers it, he said he had been in the boy scouts, but had relatives with a military background. While taking a quick look at the web on that One Shepherd Leadership Institute, it seemed that only - roughly - 1/7 of their programs were about what I associate with leadership training. But okay, personal integrity and character surely ARE fundamental building blocks on leadership, so by starting with yourself you can start leading by example... I want to believe there are elements on building upon these in most of their training; after all, they work in teams. It would seem that the lion share of their offer on leadership training has focus is on light, tactical, leadership, but I can not help feeling that in practical terms the basis for most is doing MILSIM or role play using MILES and a decent personal clothing and gear kit. The only "Dr. Christopher Larsen" in Missouri on Linkedin I found was a general otolaryngologist. There is a Christopher E. Larsen who is author of a handful of books, like the "Paintball and Airsoft Battle Tactics". Not saying anything on his expertise and from what appears here he seems to be a fun, nice, person alright. That said, I am not impressed just by any ones sharp, smart, looks and is kind of burned on that. Nothing wrong with not having military training, but it seems a bit strange to me if people tend to appear by their dress and general appearance as being military or former military if they in fact are not. I read in a positive review that the staff for some courses up to 2014 had no active duty experience. Then again, if you are after some MILSIM using MILES and want military looking people telling you military sounding stuff, have some fun.
Eddie Van Horn I've heard Bob was one hell of a hard ass when he was in the military. Also that his attitude on the show was in direct contrast to that, he was sick of being a hard ass.
Interesting. In my service time (Germany) we did it similar as the Koreans, although a bit thinner black lines. But generally we were told also to adapt the amount of colour to the skin type of the individual soldiers, pale skinned people had to do a lot more. Also, we had a completely different pattern for urban areas (we called it Z shape). For me, the Korean looked the best, although having them to hide into typical surroundings would have been interesting to see.
i really enjoyed the bit where one man rubbed stuff on the other mans face. He was really good at rubbing the stuff all over the guys face, gentle but firm. Also top marks for the model, who remained tough looking throughout the whole video
I used the exact same product when I was in the Canadian Forces in 2001-2004. I was an infantryman. I always considered it a form of artistic expression how one puts camouflage face paint on. Everybody had a little mirror that they got from somewhere so they could check themselves out.
Me at 12:15 am : Ugh I am tired, I want to sleep. UA-cam Algorithm: You need this. Never know when you need this particular knowledge. Knowledge is Power. You watched the carpenter videos and the blacksmith ones. You don’t want to miss this one. Me: now having the ability to disappear..
It's actually insane how effective this is even when looking from so up close. I can tell that my mind is having trouble finding their faces in the assymetry
@@hapmaplapflapgap Yeah the brown used in this video is far too warm to be used so heavily. If it were a colder tint of brown it would have been far more effective.
This man has some serious knowledge about camouflaging. I kinda thought they just paint some green, brown and black on their face with random patterns and that''s it. I think that the South Korean method matched the clothing the best and I think that from a couple 10 meters away you can't really tell where the face actually is. Especially while in the woods.
+shr00mhead we cant fly past the low earth orbit. we live in a flat earth dome my friend. all the facts are out there debunking spacetravel and the globe
You need to learn geometry. And logic. How far we can fly off the earth has nothing to do with the shape of the earth. Do some research on the celestial poles.
There are some dumbasses who believe in flat earth, chemtrails, and that 9/11 was an inside job and all that. That is the problem with contrarian thought, while it is good to have a critical mind, some people think critical thought is just the opposite of convention. I know a lot of leftist groups that deliberately spread these bs conspiracies in order to create a certain contrast so they can point to others as nuts and delegitimize their opposition and distract from their own failings. For example when there were big compromises in the global warming scam which forced them to change the term to "climate change" there was a big push by them to try and draw people into flat earth in order to have a scapegoat of uneducated public minorities to lump their opposition in.
First of all: Bob Ross 2.0 Did Mike shut down from 1:02 - 2:08 ? 21:00 I'd say the Korean way is best for dense deciduous forest (in summer) (US maybe too if less flat brown areas are used), while the British way is better for semi-open "bushy" lands.
I'm liking the ROK solution from a stylistic standpoint. Goes with the OD pretty nicely. Edit: IMO it's also the most effective. Matches the environment closest and breaks up the face the best.
ahh u must be speaking from experience, im assuming you're from the ADF? well at least for me we mixed the green with the black first thus we have a dark green base at the start and we branch out the 3 stripes into small little 'branches'. we do alot of night jungle training and trust me our uniforms alone will blend into the pitch dark tree lines and you will wont be able to see them just 10+ metres away from u. this has nothing to do with little available training space. speaking of which we only go Aussie so we can have the freedom to play with our bigger toys and exchange tactics with the true ADF, not to learn how to camo our faces. cheers
It's an effective solution. The watermelon is found in nature - It is perfectly appropriate to paint a human face like a watermelon, nobody will see it coming!
One correctio here. Hue is the position of the color on the color wheel. So green is very different on the brown. What you ment to say is value or how light or dark the color is. So that green and brown from the beginning have very similar value but very dfferent hue.
The phrase you are looking for is "tone value". Black has a tone value of zero, while the brown and green have a tone value of about 5. A tan would have a value of 2-3. The 'contrast' in tone is probably more important than the colours.
The natural skin colour for most people seems a bit too light for most environments, and stands out a little. In nature there are only a few rocks and conditions where it would match in. The SK camo is surprisingly effective, at making it look like a non-face with just green/black in use. From any reasonable distance they all work well, close up is where you can start to pick things up. I think full coverage is the best, unless you have naturally darker skin.
the one we used was super thick and oily, kinda like a thicker vaseline so it didn't dry. the one he is using is a lot more runny. we should have gotten the kind he uses honestly because ours turned solid when it was cold and its cold all the fucking time here in Norway.
It's suprising how well it comes through camera. I you look at any picture (or this video) of anyone with a camo painted face it almost looks alien. I could see how you could look them in the eyes and not even identify them when in the Bush.
Has a kid I found that creamy cheap face camo would burn my face. That being said I grew up in Alaska and have great memories of playing with my brothers and cousins in hiding from eachother in the woods in all camo.

I'm ex UK infantry. Light and shadow. You can break up the natural lines and contours with a basic stick of brown - light and dark. Less is more. Every round has to count with limited resources ;-)
1st example, followed both sides of his nose, so there is still a symmetry / pattern ... "snap" ... brains all over the foliage - clean that up soldier!
2nd example, not bad, but too much maintenance if you're in the field for longer than a weekend jolly.
3rd example, too symmetrical, pulling out from the centre draws the eye to that centre point, which would be right above your nose and between the eyes ... clap clap bravo ... "snap" ... clean up aisle 3!
I'll still go with what I learned, use your natural skin colour as light and dark as well instead of completely synthesizing, but go across and down, not just pulling from the centre, I used to cover most finger tips in brown and then drag in several directions (pretend you're being dragged through a bush!), touching up for areas missed too badly. Job done, we're Oscar Mike.
PS: you'd have bug eyes like that if you'd not slept for the last 36 hours! ;-)

Yah I couldn't see his face the most especially with the surroundings
In Germany we paint our faces completely green for operations in forests and then use three or four fingers with black color to create angled stripes on top of the green. That way, when looking though the scope of your gun, the stripes are aligned vertically, since in nature vegetation does not usually grow horizontally. This method makes is possible to quickly camouflage your face and to maintain it, as the camouflage can wear off rather quick depending on the environment. Application of this camouflage style can be done by yourself, in less that 10 seconds, for trained people.
David similar in Estonia. Green base coat, then brown and green in a non symmetrical fashion, considering the higher and lower points of the face.
I read that in a german accent

The korean one was very good! I could barely see that it was a face under.
agreed, i think that had the best camoflauge with the background at the end
I had exactly the same thought, the Korean method seems to be the best theoretical approach because of its simplicity and effectiveness. It probably works especially well in jungle or European woods, you blend into the viney surroundings, like ferns, with those diagonal stripes.
@@Vidhur in european woods you would want uk one or all brown in fall (depends where and when)
@@Zyczu55 Colour is not as important as the guy in the video clearly explains. It's the pattern that matters. Like the guy said: the human eye can detect the shape of a human face. This fact counts even in low light conditions where colour would be of little importance. The pattern on the Korean one is clearly superior in this video.
@@Vidhur Yes, I agree that pattern matters but you cant go in green to this forest i.imgur.com/3ugTVPr.png. That is just an example that color is over pattern, you could be on desert with winter camo but it wouldn't help that much as desert camo. My point is that european woods are bad example because 60% of the time there is no green at all (at least in north part of europe) and the rest of the time its closer to brown than green.

Pretty much how you do it. And also you try to go light around the eyes because having this paint drip down when you start sweating is annoying as fk.
At least that was how I did it back in the day of military service.
The UK seems to have it the most right to me.
Usually, it aims to create layers rather than splotches, with mostly a brown. The issue cam cream is darker than seen here, but it's a good generalisation.
Kekela Why isn't russia #1? North Korea? China? Pakistan?
I have to admit, the Korean version looks the best. It even blends with the foliage really smooth. The light brown splotches stand out on the remaining two.
mj .twardy I agree.
Please consider this is the camoflage for a right handed soldier. If you tilt your head to aim with your gun, the stripes should become vertical, not horizontal! Trees are vertical or tall gras is vertical too.
If you are set behind your sights, your face is fairly hidden by your weapon. Your forehead (which should be under your cover) is all that would be exposed.
Yeah I thought it was working quite a bit better than the other two....
The brown is what kills the other 2, they would all be about equal if they used only green & black
I'm a korean. I served the Korean military in the 5th infantry div. From my perspective, your rendition of the korean version is superbly done. also, the reason why we usually dont cover the neck is because we usually have additional neck coverings that uses the traditional camouflage pattern, in addition to the chinese collar. On a side note, as a joke, I remember when i was a new recruit, i also put camouflage paint on my teeth (to be funny to other recruits), but my instructor was impressed and gave me merit points.
Ha! Extra points for teeth camouflage. Nice. Also...I worked with the ROK 5th INF Division during TEAM SPIRIT 1986 while I was assigned to the 1/17 INF Buffalo Regiment as part of the US 2nd INF Division. Very cool.
Christopher Larsen awesome! TEAM SPIRIT has since then changed to RSOI (Reception, Staging, Onward Movement and Integration of Forces) when I was in service, and its now called KEY RESOLVE.

The Korean one seems to be the best in this environment.
It goes with the solid color uniform too.
I feel like he shouldn't have used brown, it seems too overt.
The british army representation i have to say isnt the best or at the least is very outdated. We dont apply lots cam otherwise it shines and makes us easier to spot but we do apply to everwhere on the face apart from above the eyes so when we sweat it doesnt drip in our eyes. Also the steaks are pulled randomly across the face as reppettative patterns are easier to spot too. If you see a modern britsh soldier apply cam it would be far more in detail and if done right you would spot his whole body way before his face. Apart from that, its an interesting video espeacially that you get to see how other armies manage this skill
US was the worst.
It looks that way at 20:05, but I think that's because they're standing in front of the truck with it's straight lines and dark shadows.
In foliage, the UK method in particular might be superior.
What an utterly fascinating video clip - I have zero need to know this but am happy I know more this afternoon than I did this morning. Thank you.
You never know...
In the UK I wasn't taught this method. I was actually taught to lightly use a base colour like a natural brown brushed across the face to disrupt the natural shadows (Imagine a kids dirty face). Then using a mix of dark and light natural colours flecked across the face to mimic the natural shadows in your environent. If you try to hard to create solid paterns they end up looking really unatural and humans are naturally very talented at picking out patterns in anything. The S. Korean method shown in this is good because the cammo tends to move in one direction. This is something that you would see in a natural environment, as the suns position will cast most shadows in the same direction, at similar lengths.
yeah I was taught that as well for british army. Most Important was to use a darker base colour, even mud if you have nothing else, and cover the skin lightly because oil in the skin makes it shine through, but then he was right about not going over the top with the other colours. Also blend the colour edges a bit because hard edges are generally a bad thing.
I was also taught what he said about black-people think black is the perfect nightime camouflage but as he says theres nothing black in nature really, and nightime doesnt turn things black but just a darker shade of the colour it already is.
Agreed. I spent 22 years in the British Army and I'm not convinced that this guy understands our concept at all - ie breaking up natural shapes and shadows - actually using the skin tones as part of the camouflage - all done in the minimum amount of time with the least effort and materials. It strikes me that the American style over-thinks the whole thing. It actually creates patterns, uses way too much cam cream and takes far too long to apply.
Cool guy. Philosophical, comedical, and a warrior.

Brent - The funny thing is that One Shepherd staff officers have been badgering me to make this video for literally five years! Now looking back at how smoothly it went, I kinda feel guilty not making it sooner. But you and Bruce make the work look easy. (That's my story, and I'm sticking to it!)
In the video I make reference to "the five S" of camouflage, but didn't say what they were. I had to look it up, and it turns out that doctrine now calls them "the seven S" of camouflage. They are:
1. Sound - Noise discipline!
2. Speed - Slow movement. The human eye recognizes movement most of all.
3. Silhouette - Don’t skyline yourself against light backgrounds.
4. Surface - Blend your color and texture to the environment.
5. Shape/Size - Look like your surroundings.
6. Spacing - Don’t stick out by using too much camouflage in one spot.
7. Shadow - Be mindful of casting your shadow onto smooth surfaces.
Once again, this video will be hung on the One Shepherd website for future use by all newcomers to our Warrior community. Thanks for the great job and a fantastic looking video!

In the U.K., we use green as a base layer, and normally just drag our fingers through the brown and black diagonally across our face. Nothing artistic at all, just get it on however you can. You're going to sweat it all off after one attack anyway mate
I do the same (Belgian Army)
I have never seen British soldiers do it this way, as you said it's not an art project, it gets thrown on in battle prep and a lot of the time it does cover the entire face but just not with solid lines between
i was always told its literally just about taking the 'shine' off your face. the patterns are pretty much pointless.
Sometimes if we've lost our cam cream we just slap a bit of wet mud on our faces does the same trick (I'm from the UK too)
David Williams we sometimes use black, but the reason is because it throws off the natural shadows which will appear on your face at times

I had an employee (beautiful 18 year old) about 15 years ago who dressed like a “sexy soldier” for Halloween. She asked me to do her camo. Using basic camo logic I applied her makeup. She freaked out. Looking directly at her own face in a mirror she said it was unreal how she felt like she couldn’t see or recognize herself. The principle is to highlight the holes and break up anything that is human. Humans are symmetrical so your makeup can’t be. Nose is high and linear so you need lowlight on tip but also break the vertical line. Eye sockets are deep so lighten them, but also break the recognizable circle. Cheeks are high so darken them. Her face looked flat and unrecognizeable as human. It was pretty amazing. Wish I had a picture to post of it.
What I find interesting is that it's literally the opposite of make-up.
In make-up you have to highlight your human features (you highlight the center part above your lips, your nose, your cheekbones, etc.) and try to stay symmetrical, while in camo since you need to destroy the human shape of your face you do the exact opposite.
Yeah well, in this situation you're the idiot here. All that chick wanted was to have a matching "sexy" camo on her face and you decided to show off and paint her face like she's going into war. Moron.
I lost it when you said highlight the holes! I'm thinkin' yeah, she might be freaked out by that...

I was looking for this comment
the purpose of camouflage is NOT to not be seen.........but to not be recognized WHEN seen. Humans naturally know what another human looks like . We can see "human shapes" even in clouds. So camouflage is used so that when looked at someone, the looker does not realize he is seeing another human. We tend to focus on eyes nose and mouth, so those shapes must be masked, not just colored, to be properly hidden. People come in a lot of colors so just changing the color of the skin won't do it. The colors must make the human face, NO LONGER look human.......and it CAN be done...but it will take practice ..JMO

As an 8 yr vet of the British Army, including a tour of Iraq in 2003, I was never taught to apply cam creme like this. I was always taught , loads of brown in your hand....spit on it .....then apply that as a base layer to hands neck face and ears. Then apply small patches of green or black randomly and fade them into the brown by rubbing around the edges of the patch to create blended depth. That was the same at Catterick, Pirbright or Sennybridge
Interesting to see the American and Korean way of doing it though
Andy Davis - Thank you. And let me say up front that the British Army technique I've demonstrated is no longer used.
As many British Army veterans have pointed out, the technique I demonstrated in this video is out of date by at least a dozen years. The British technique seems to have changed roughly about 2004. But in my defense, this older technique was in use for the better part of a half century. (Although the older British vets insist I still used too much camo cream!) And yes, as it was taught to me way back in the 1980s, the British Army technique was FAST!
Things change over time.
I found the video interesting and well presented . It's just that I joined in 91 did four years, rejoined in 2000 and did another 4 and it was taught to me the same then. Definately the Brits frown on heavy application especially with sharp differences between colours.
Ah. Fair enough. Plenty of US veterans have also insisted that my demonstration of the US method is inaccurate according to the strictest interpretation of the manual. Also fair...but then this technique was taught to me by two NCO instructors at the US Army School of the Infantry at Fort Benning, Georgia in 1985. So, if the schoolhouse, plus all the scientific studies over the past 100 years agree, and this is vindicated through my own combat experience, then I'm going to put my faith in that.

@@Z0Z99 i mean, i was thinking the US would be the most effective and came out at the end pretty sure I like the korean the best
The Korean mixed with the American in that it covers everything was really good
No doubt, the Korean camo performed the best in this setting.
Would be very interesting to see camo in other settings, such as desert, snow, dried brush, etc :)
To my eye the US solution isn't significantly more effective than the UK. The ROK looks best of the three.
To me the british looked best, surprisingly, in the distance picture. His face is a blob, at first i thought he was wearing some sort of veil/face cover. The US seems the worst out of the 3 as i could see eyes in the distance shot, the ROK works well, but its still too symmetrical somehow, it would look odd in nature where symmetry isnt that common, brit really becomes a blob. And i thought that one would be the worst.
For the distance shot there wasn't much brown around them so the US stuck out more. I do think the British one would be best if the covered the whole face that way.
I did ccf and I was chosen to be the example for face camo and they covered my entire face took about 3 days to fully get it off and my skin was raw

A very nice demonstration. It is neat seeing the three styles next to each other.
Thanks, Jesse. Sometimes it helps to compare and contrast different solutions to the same problem. What's interesting about these three styles is that they all work from the same base assumptions to solve those identified problems.
Now, many people commenting here note (rightfully) that virtually any smeared color on the human face will essentially solve the problem by simply making the human face not appear as human. That's hard to argue against. I agree. But how effective is that approach at near, mid, and long distance? How effective is that approach in each of the various environments - arid, tropic, winter, urban? We've presented three solutions here that are generally accepted as "best practices" that are further substantiated by theory. Yet we recognize that there are, in fact, other solutions as well.
i really like the korean style one, throw in a little brown with the green and i think it would work amazing
Christopher Larsen Would the colors vary depending on the setting? For example in a snowy environment would white be use or in a sandy one would tan?
British and American guy: we need someone completely invisible.
South Korean guy: hold my beer.
British and American guy: who said that?
Russian and his PKM, on top of the hill: ABRACADABRA!
Ibwas actually surprised it worked as well as it did. He used too much brown on the others though.
No wars are taking place in the jungle any more. Wars take place in the desert, this is why they have brown/tan colors. They have many more desert variants cause of the change in warfare.
Thank God somebody knows how to do it!!
Thanks for,share
hey! saw you on a forgotten weapons vid!
i'm a fan!!!
eltenda fabrizio not sure how this is "correct" when the US Army soldier's skills manual states light colors go in dark areas, and dark colors go on light areas such as the forehead, chin, nose, etc.
GeekBoy03 Interestingly enough, that person acting as an instructor has hinted himself in a promotion video that he has no military training. As I remembers it, he said he had been in the boy scouts, but had relatives with a military background.
While taking a quick look at the web on that One Shepherd Leadership Institute, it seemed that only - roughly - 1/7 of their programs were about what I associate with leadership training. But okay, personal integrity and character surely ARE fundamental building blocks on leadership, so by starting with yourself you can start leading by example... I want to believe there are elements on building upon these in most of their training; after all, they work in teams.
It would seem that the lion share of their offer on leadership training has focus is on light, tactical, leadership, but I can not help feeling that in practical terms the basis for most is doing MILSIM or role play using MILES and a decent personal clothing and gear kit.
The only "Dr. Christopher Larsen" in Missouri on Linkedin I found was a general otolaryngologist.
There is a Christopher E. Larsen who is author of a handful of books, like the "Paintball and Airsoft Battle Tactics".
Not saying anything on his expertise and from what appears here he seems to be a fun, nice, person alright. That said, I am not impressed just by any ones sharp, smart, looks and is kind of burned on that. Nothing wrong with not having military training, but it seems a bit strange to me if people tend to appear by their dress and general appearance as being military or former military if they in fact are not. I read in a positive review that the staff for some courses up to 2014 had no active duty experience. Then again, if you are after some MILSIM using MILES and want military looking people telling you military sounding stuff, have some fun.
eltenda fabrizio LMAO this guy doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground.
"or de evolution"
this guy is onto something
Bob Ross before he left the military...
Eddie Van Horn he was a drill sergeant so yea....
Eddie Van Horn I've heard Bob was one hell of a hard ass when he was in the military. Also that his attitude on the show was in direct contrast to that, he was sick of being a hard ass.
We all know it’s a human but.... wait.. that’s deep
THAT MADE ME LAUGH SO HARD
Tomorrow is the area 51 raid and youtube is reccommending me how to camoflage yourself and how to reload an ak47
Did you need someone to tell you how to reload an ak
@@truthistricky61
Go jerk your ego elsewhere lol
@@truthistricky61 shut up
Nerves: Hit
AK: Loaded
It’s zoomer time
I got one on how to make homemade bombs lol

Me: Wait... That's deep...
This joke has no punchline
No it's a human

Brandon do you want to stand right there?
Brandon: No I don't think I will
Yeah I thought that too.
He said "Mike can you stand right there"
Then he said "Brandon, would you remove your cover please"
@@NoobieLandCity Thanks, i understood "might you stand right there" too
He kinda looks like my uncle.
He said *"Mike,* you want to stand right there? Brendan, remove your cover."
These fellows are so respectful to each other it makes me want to join the army and get my expectations blown apart by the drill sergeants.
Bob Ross camo edition. Lmao
happy little trees
He seriously does sound like Bob Ross making happy little accidents.
Uniform Tango 74 for real, that's exactly what I was thinking at 30 seconds in. So funny
Beat the devil out of it!
And Bob Ross was a military instructor before he was a painter. Seriously!
This man has more humor than 80% of my teachers have
Interesting. In my service time (Germany) we did it similar as the Koreans, although a bit thinner black lines.
But generally we were told also to adapt the amount of colour to the skin type of the individual soldiers, pale skinned people had to do a lot more.
Also, we had a completely different pattern for urban areas (we called it Z shape).
For me, the Korean looked the best, although having them to hide into typical surroundings would have been interesting to see.
i really enjoyed the bit where one man rubbed stuff on the other mans face. He was really good at rubbing the stuff all over the guys face, gentle but firm. Also top marks for the model, who remained tough looking throughout the whole video
I just watched a dude use an invisibility spell on a floating head
I used the exact same product when I was in the Canadian Forces in 2001-2004.
I was an infantryman.
I always considered it a form of artistic expression how one puts camouflage face paint on.
Everybody had a little mirror that they got from somewhere so they could check themselves out.
This is the manliest makeup tutorial I've seen!
The instructor reminds of the guy from dirty jobs i think his name is mike rowe
I don't know why, but I am having flash backs to watching the JOY OF PAINTING.
Ha
Me at 12:15 am : Ugh I am tired, I want to sleep.
UA-cam Algorithm: You need this. Never know when you need this particular knowledge. Knowledge is Power. You watched the carpenter videos and the blacksmith ones. You don’t want to miss this one.
Me: now having the ability to disappear..
explained better than my drill sgt in bct.
Matt Martin they explained that to you? They just told us to do it
This is bob Ross's tactical brother hahahaha
Just what I was thinking haha
Which is hilarious because Bob Ross is also military.
Ross the quiet innocent painter used to be a hardcore Army Drill Sarge
E Wheeled did you laugh at your own joke????
Russ Harvey bob Ross is dead
It must be fun to play army on the weekends when you’re retired
It's actually insane how effective this is even when looking from so up close. I can tell that my mind is having trouble finding their faces in the assymetry
If anything the US solution was the weakest because the entire section around the mouth has the same color
@@hapmaplapflapgap Yeah the brown used in this video is far too warm to be used so heavily. If it were a colder tint of brown it would have been far more effective.
This man has some serious knowledge about camouflaging. I kinda thought they just paint some green, brown and black on their face with random patterns and that''s it.
I think that the South Korean method matched the clothing the best and I think that from a couple 10 meters away you can't really tell where the face actually is. Especially while in the woods.
"Wait that's deep, no, it's a human" still laughing
+shr00mhead we cant fly past the low earth orbit. we live in a flat earth dome my friend. all the facts are out there debunking spacetravel and the globe
You need to learn geometry. And logic. How far we can fly off the earth has nothing to do with the shape of the earth. Do some research on the celestial poles.
U Dontknowme can't tell if you're being sarcastic or if you actually believe that shit...
There are some dumbasses who believe in flat earth, chemtrails, and that 9/11 was an inside job and all that. That is the problem with contrarian thought, while it is good to have a critical mind, some people think critical thought is just the opposite of convention. I know a lot of leftist groups that deliberately spread these bs conspiracies in order to create a certain contrast so they can point to others as nuts and delegitimize their opposition and distract from their own failings. For example when there were big compromises in the global warming scam which forced them to change the term to "climate change" there was a big push by them to try and draw people into flat earth in order to have a scapegoat of uneducated public minorities to lump their opposition in.
First Name are you being serious?
First of all: Bob Ross 2.0
Did Mike shut down from 1:02 - 2:08 ?
21:00
I'd say the Korean way is best for dense deciduous forest (in summer) (US maybe too if less flat brown areas are used), while the British way is better for semi-open "bushy" lands.
MrSaNF good insight. It all depends on the environment.
Yea the Korean one is the best for dense tropical forests, here in Brazil our jungle soldiers use the exact same face camo in amazon
1:02 - that guy looks like "Mike the Cop". Is he? You say his name is Mike.
"But you didn't have to cut me off"
I'm liking the ROK solution from a stylistic standpoint. Goes with the OD pretty nicely.
Edit: IMO it's also the most effective. Matches the environment closest and breaks up the face the best.
The Allied Powers I noticed that as well. Those black lines mimic saplings very well
I liked how simple is was, just slap it on there and go, no need to sit around and get artsy fartsy with it when you're being hunted.
its the same style we use in the Singapore Army, fellow infantry soldier here btw. simple and fast, just two sticks of colors. cheers
ahh u must be speaking from experience, im assuming you're from the ADF? well at least for me we mixed the green with the black first thus we have a dark green base at the start and we branch out the 3 stripes into small little 'branches'. we do alot of night jungle training and trust me our uniforms alone will blend into the pitch dark tree lines and you will wont be able to see them just 10+ metres away from u. this has nothing to do with little available training space. speaking of which we only go Aussie so we can have the freedom to play with our bigger toys and exchange tactics with the true ADF, not to learn how to camo our faces. cheers
It's an effective solution. The watermelon is found in nature - It is perfectly appropriate to paint a human face like a watermelon, nobody will see it coming!
One correctio here. Hue is the position of the color on the color wheel. So green is very different on the brown. What you ment to say is value or how light or dark the color is. So that green and brown from the beginning have very similar value but very dfferent hue.
Good catch. My bad. You're correct, I meant value (e.g. relative lightness and darkness).
The phrase you are looking for is "tone value". Black has a tone value of zero, while the brown and green have a tone value of about 5. A tan would have a value of 2-3. The 'contrast' in tone is probably more important than the colours.

LOOK OUT EVERYONE...WE GOT A FUCKIN EXPERT OVER HERE
very informative! Great info to start incorporating into ideology and philosophy. thanks for sharing.
for my 2 cents, I'm digging the Korean style
*Lets be honest, none of us searched for this*
You the type of person to search for this, just to write that comment
I think I got this as a recommendation because I watched too many AI and deeplearning-related videos.
@@TheGreatestWorldFox I think I got it from watching SteveMRE
We should just fuck around and become internet militia
Absolutely not, no
The natural skin colour for most people seems a bit too light for most environments, and stands out a little. In nature there are only a few rocks and conditions where it would match in. The SK camo is surprisingly effective, at making it look like a non-face with just green/black in use. From any reasonable distance they all work well, close up is where you can start to pick things up. I think full coverage is the best, unless you have naturally darker skin.
I’m all for the US where I’ve been born and raised but damn if that South Korean style ain’t awesome
Bob Ross never died,
the military just recruited him.
Wasn't bob ross already in the military?
Maybe they called him back in then and he had to go undercover and change his identity.
Steve L correction: he was a Master Sgt in the USAF. Not sure where you got SgtMjr from...
"Let's get Mike dirty"
Mike: :)
In Finland we use the S. Korean one
here in Norway to. but we were taught to use less, having your face glossy will make you more visible.
Sounds like an excuse to save paint since the color is quite matte when the paint dries on your face.
As far as I'm concerned Denmark joined that method too. Usually with the black stripes in finger-width.
the one we used was super thick and oily, kinda like a thicker vaseline so it didn't dry. the one he is using is a lot more runny. we should have gotten the kind he uses honestly because ours turned solid when it was cold and its cold all the fucking time here in Norway.
South Korean one seems most effective to me and faster to put on.
It's suprising how well it comes through camera. I you look at any picture (or this video) of anyone with a camo painted face it almost looks alien. I could see how you could look them in the eyes and not even identify them when in the Bush.
Has a kid I found that creamy cheap face camo would burn my face. That being said I grew up in Alaska and have great memories of playing with my brothers and cousins in hiding from eachother in the woods in all camo.
Naked?
Formidable Foe naked and afraid
