Camo Face Paint - How to Apply Correctly
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 июл 2024
- Learn to apply camo correctly like a Ranger and to Expert Infantry Badge standards. Having a blotchy mix of camo is not how you want to Veggie-Up! You want dark colors along features if the face to give the appearance they are flat. You want lighter colors on sunken features to make the appear to stand out. This, overall gives the appearance of flat features to blend into a woodland environment and breaks up the human face.

Definitely did that quick. I always used the rule, "light on the meat, dark on the bones"..same thing you explained.
Great minds think alike!
I did mine different for archery hunting. I know, two different things, but, I had another hunter almost walk into me and didn't see me. I moved my bow and he about crapped his pants! Lol. I just had on the old TRUSTED woodland cammo and a hunters ball cap. I was about 30 yards off a crossecting game trail. He was on the other side of this hill heading back to his van. Bad news is, alot of sign for deer but only had a chipmunk hollerin at me and a crow above me lettin everyone know I was there *sigh*
This is by far the best camo video I've seen on youtube, it gets the basic points right. One suggestion to even improve your camo further: Apply light color first. If you do that, you can then simply go "over" the light color with your dark one, and if you applied light "generously", the darker one will blend in straight away without creating edges. I suggest you try it and compare the results.
Am Freiceadan Dubh Thanks! Great point!
Guys you'll have 10 mins to do this, and he did it in 8:27 mins with explaining everything that he was doing!

Move to the staging area for the next evolution , you are a go at this station.
"This is kinda like one of those make-up videos." You crack me up.
6 year old me getting ready for laser tag 😂😂😂
Hell yea same😂
I love this video! Very straight forward and easy to understand and follow. Only two colors to blend and done! Thank you for the knowledge you shared with us!
"This is like one of those makeup videos"
Nice and straight forward. I always went with this style due to how quick you can apply it, and only requiring two colors. Green and Dark Green. An OD cravat around the neck helps reduce how much camo you go through.
Thanks man! Have to give a class tomorrow and havent done facepaint in like 3 years so really great refresher!
That's cool. I have never seen camo face paint applied before. Keep up the good work.
Fantastic video, man! Keep em coming!!
Outstanding work!
Just found you thanks to Corporals Corner. Good stuff! Looking forward to the rest of your content.
This is correct, but I always put the light green around eyes and mouth first, then applied the dark as he did. Works either way, great video!
I hated applying the camo with the sticks they provided because I had light-colored hair, which stood out at long-range. I had camo way up into my hairline. If the helmet didn't cover it, the camo did. Getting it off later was never fun either, and many guys soon developed rashes from the irritation of constantly having to apply the stuff. I'm sure there have been advances in face paint since the mid 1980's, but back then, the sticks were all we had. If you could heat the ends with a match it went on easier, but most times it was just put on as is.
Biggest mistake was dropping woodland camo. Look how the new camo uniform is lit up compared to his face and camo back drop. out. That was thorough demonstration.
Very clear explanation! What mistakes do you see in other videos?
Different Militaries have different methods for applying cam paint but achieve the same goal in the end. 👍
Thanks for making this video. as a former army journalism / public affairs soldier i didn't spend much time learning about the expert infantry stuff in relaxin' Jackson much less when i got into my fieldwork. Not sure how many infantry applied woodland camo to their faces in Iraq either lol.... anywho. I'm getting into this now that I'm getting into hunting. I wonder does it depend if it's humans or animals whose detection you're trying to avoid?
Best make up video ever! Much perfer your story, to the nonsense that most people babble about during their videos and at least your makeup is practicle....though I do have to ask what kind of make up remover you recommend and what would be your skin care regime with this product😊💚....Love your vidoes and you great video as alway
Awesome that was an excellent explaination
Sir!!!!!! It’s Duran!!!!! I love that I found you on Yourube and I’m passing this off to my candidates for EIB
What up big Sarge!
Going to be teaching a class to my soldiers today on proper way to apply face paint thank you
exactly what i was looking for. eib standard
I like to put mine on just before I go grocery shopping. Gets funny looks from the little old ladies.
Can you also show how to apply camouflage in winter? This tutorial was the best by far!
Thank you for the comment! I'm glad you liked the video. I can do winter camo. Winter camouflage doesn't usually involve face paint because of the potential cold weather injuries, more accurately, the inability to identify those injuries with paint on the face while on mission. Exposed skin is the most likely area of the body to get chill blains or frost bite apart from the extremities. With paint on one's face it would be harder to identify and treat those injuries resulting in a greater injury over time. Typically 10F is the cutoff for winter camo.
@@RangerSurvivalandFieldCraft Someone go to CWLC ? My home unit was Artic, "winter" camo consisted of a white frostbite/skijourn mask whiteout top and od bottoms and a white ruck cover.
STEADILY READY PREPAREDNESS I did not, but one of my platoon sergeants was stationed in Alaska and did go. We were stationed in Europe together and EUCOM policy was face paint for all training events. A debate ensued when we were doing enter and clear trenches in 0 degrees. We went with the recon wraps that day.
@@RangerSurvivalandFieldCraft burnt cork or charcoal is the best on skin pigment for extreme cold like that when there is no powder.Carbon and scrim netting.
@@RangerSurvivalandFieldCraft do US soldiers wear face paint in desert environments? Or is camouflage face paint only used in a woodland environment?
Great video. Easy to understand and very helpful. Do you have a specific brand of face paint you recommend?
Wiener products are good as well as BrigadeQM
@@RangerSurvivalandFieldCraft Thanks!
I was trained basically the same except to use a bit more light green in the areas that tended to shadow such as under the bottom lip and where the nose meets the rest of the face. I was also told no straight lines across the face. So the brow would have been half dark green and half brown. I was also told no black. You can blend black with green or brown but no straight black.
Yep, no black. Dark green on the shine, light green on the shadow
If black wasn't an important color, why is it in most woodland camo? I disagree, I think it's extremely important to use black. The technique of green and dark green seems like ATACS, where as I'm used to woodland. But I suppose there are serval ways to grandma's house
Great application
Good job!!! I liked your video 👍
USMC here, this was 🔥
That is interesting! And cool!
Wife just asked me what I’m doing… I said watching a makeup video on RUclips. It just got weird at my house!!!!
The only makeup video ill gladly watch
Good job!!
HULK SMASH!....😂
Thank showing👍
Awesome!
Works great with Tiger stripe camo
Good video , thanks for sharing , God bless !
You younger grunts are lucky. We had the shit that was hard wax in a metal tube and made you smell like a crayon. It was hard to apply but it didn’t rub off easily.
I’ve got one or two of those concrete crayons laying around!
You can take them out of the tube and melt them down and add a few drops of coconut oil to soften them up. If you do too much, it’s soft like the compact stuff y’all have now.
That's what we used in my generation too. Felt like it was tearing the skin on the face when we applied it. Also we used black and green sticks as well as dark green/light green sticks. Hard to put on but hard to get off. Many times I'd be back in garrison after a shower and someone still tell me I had camo behind my ears. Baby oil worked well getting that stuff off in the shower.
@@SoldierAndrew We used shaving cream to take it off.
this is one way but the way i have learned it is to put a light brown on first then in streaks of green and dark brown to then put in lines going all different ways
There are subtle techniques for different climates and how exactly to break up the human features with face paint. The end state should be to conceal the human face and reduce the appearance of human facial characteristics so as to avoid detection. So as long as that is being done one can't go wrong.
Video up man. Let's see this killer technique. Every dude worth their salt is open to learn multiple new fieldcraft techniques.
How cute!!! Don forget eyes and lips🤣🤣🤣
Well done.
Good halloween idea
Hoooah! RLTW 2/75th 🤙🏾
Seems a bit easier than it did when we had Light Green and Loam sticks and a lighter.... Things have improved.
Gosh, where’d you go? You blend in so well... 😊
again, everything is deliberate... with a reason and a purpose...
Good job...as always...
So are baby wipes the best way to wash/wipe clean?
New from 2023. Pencil thin, app wide "roller ball", digital print. Your buds stencil you (prior mission) and can carry (small) when re-ap applies. OR...Roller ball with ever-changing colors, roll and go.
Awesome
Why is it, only one person is ever right on RUclips?
Rule of thumb. Darken light areas, lighten dark areas.
I subscribed this is a good video.
Thank you! Straight forward video that’s not some artistic camp pattern that’s half assed.
James Hesch Thank you for the comment and awesome feedback, appreciate it!!!
You gotta be ready for the ball.
makes a lot of sense.
So good
Thanks!
2:08 and that’s what video games think face paint looks like.
thank you
Did they ever come out with face paint for the color of the uniform you have on? Or do they just use desert Cammie paint?
They came out with several patterns, most recently is the "scorpion" pattern. I'll publish a video later today using that camo. Most of the camo contrasts with the uniform.
Just think!!!
Marijuana leaf shape!!!!
If camous sticks??? Apply chigger joice or slimy baby oil for base before the camou applied. Works Everytime
what camo compact did you use?
Light on the meat, dark on the bone
THANKS
Oh, excuse me, didn't see you there.
Awesome! As soon as you started to shade your eyes you started to disappear into that background.
Bit different but if it works it works
Man I miss the army some days.
An boom, Cheshire Cat😜 Thank you for the clarification.
I have a query Sir....I put on facepaint for Halloween because I wanted to be a soldier on jungle patrol. Maybe it was the face paint, I got it from ArmyNavy surplus....It just melted into my face and I didn't get proper coverage. I also speculate that my skin was too oily.... It was a hot mess. The camo just absorbed into my face....Where did I go wrong? Should I have lit it on fire first? I've seen people do that.... What say you, Sir???🇺🇲🤔🇺🇲
thank you is best painting or use balaclava ? thank you from Chile
Lo siento, hablo espanol mas o menos. La pintura facial es mejor para climas cálidos. Baklava es bueno para el invierno para evitar lesiones por clima frío. Gracias.
@@RangerSurvivalandFieldCraft thank you sir is very good spanish best regards from Chile.
How to camouflage face from computer camera ?
Spot on , remember those days well.
The guys that didn’t do it right ,we would call them Hollywood . Lol
what brand paint?
the British actually leave some areas of the skin exposed, as skin colour kinda looks like dead plants. also in Australia we tend not to put paint above our eyes because if you sweat, that stuff can get into your eyes and it hurts lol
Is back of the neck dark or light paint?
Apply vertical lines with as best as possible
Cute... baby 😍😘😘
You and Trixie Mattel should do a colab
No camo sticks?
Is it true that OCS Class 001-17 Squad STX was the inspiration for this video?
You know it!
Chipmunks….MOVE OUT!!
thanks....
This was 100% helpful for a cosplay that requires this, tysm!
Now make a video on the best way to take facepaint off
Shaving Cream
should be asymmetrical. don't be the same on both sides. they knew that in WWII. no Al Jolson. no war paint. use the old stick camouflage, can't sweat it off--usually, and it hurt to put it on unless softened by heat.
Update....I got some damn good camo paint... It didn't run or melt into my face, it stayed true and it was easy to take off and didn't clog my pores. I love putting on camo.... imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.....fun times....I can't wait to get the ghillie suit for Halloween night....😂
What face paint did you use?
BrigadeQM and/or Weiner brands
What's an effective way of getting it off quick and easy?
Always Armed88 Baby wipes!! Or those makeup wipes. Depending on brand of paint, wipes work well.
Wait 15 minutes and you’ll sweat it off. Never found the stuff useful
cleansing oil! baby wipes and makeup wipes are super wasteful and also tug SO MUCH at the skin. Cleansing oil is made specifically to break down heavy makeup and paints, so you can just massage your face for a few minutes then rinse! You should probably double cleanse with a regular face soap just for good measure, but the cleansing oil should get rid of all the paint.
@@nananhinha any oil or grease will do. less poison with cooking oil instead of motor oil.
Which brand are you using, the one I got is trash?
Wiener Products, BrigadeQM is also pretty good.
You skipped the cold cream as base layer.
He turned into colonel kurtz
Can you use black as your dark colar
Yeah, the contrast will be more obvious between colors, and you'll want to assess your environment for appropriate patterns and additional colors. Black works will with green and light green in a blotch or stripe pattern.
Thanks
I found that a Ranger rag is perfect for camouflaging the back of your neck, as you can wear it under any head gear, helmet, boonie hat, or BDU cap, yes I'm from the 1980s and 1990s.
Earl Wyss I have a sniper veil that I carry as my cotton material for the 10 C’s often. I completely agree that it can be used for Camo as well as for gathering material, etc. I use it to cover my kit if I step away from camp. No worries, I came in when we still had BDUs and DCUs.
How was the video
Easiest one I can face paint is a skull
oops my bad, I think I'm in the wrong channel. Preparing for a Marvel cosplay as the Hulk
That’s the standard I know!
10 mins to put on 2 hours and a flamethrower to take off. what I really want to know is why you didn't use the cammo sticks? you know heat it up with a lighter...
abntemplar82 Thanks for the comment! Yeah, I’ve always been lucky that camo hold well on my face and is easy to get off at least for me. I have sticks, but prefer the compact because it makes it easier without a buddy and the mirror doubles as a signaling device. Plus I lose the sticks too often!
@@RangerSurvivalandFieldCraft I know the deal on the sticks. I retired in 04 so the sticks were our go to, unless you bought the civi stuff. Idk about ranger school, but when I went through the Q, the civi stuff wasn't allowed in either phase 1 or 3.
losing sticks is nothing new either. look forward to more vids brother. god bless and happy new year.
abntemplar82 Thanks brother! I’ll work hard to earn those views.
Where's the dude? I don't see him
You look like The Incredible Hulk just sat on your face.
