Well I redid the huge spot that is on the first picture.  The second picture is where we left off for the night.  It is a little dark, but we will be adding tan right off the bat tomorrow to make is a little lighter.  What do you think?

Looks good.  A lot of work I'm betting.

What are you making it out of?
It's not about the kill but the experience.

I am making a pull over that will be knee length for sitting on the ground for deer and turkey hunting.  I have a few places next to fields where there are no trees and tall weeds so I think this will work.  I am almost done with the back half.  This part of the suit making is really fun.  I should be done by next week!!!

I got the suit from ghilliesuits.com or something like that.  Just google ghillie kits.  I got the pull over on **** for 10.00 and it is mesh.  It is make for riding motorcycles in the summer.  I am almost done with it.  I have one arm and half of the front to go.  I did a lot of damage on it this weekend.  I will post pictures when it is finished.

Looking pretty darn good.  Don't be afraid once you have it made up to add hanks to various sections to get the effects you want.  Also when in the field, don't be afraid to add natural twigs, brush, small branches, or leaves to the suit to blend in.
