Kragenbinde Edition
Finishing hats dump
Post your most valuable piece of surp lads.
>>28383491
Probably this one
>>28383491
Singular piece? No idea. Probably my Fijin shirt.
If a set works then probably my Rhodie set.
>>28383491
I guess this would be it
Anyone ID this or have any idea of an origin?
Made of what feels like cotton/poly, khaki color, odd single button ear flaps.
Green interior.
No stamps, it's seen some hard use. The bill is broken in the middle, sweatband worn, ear flaps are ripped in the middle.
>>28383592
The button has that classic Germanic pebbling, which was also popular in South Africa until 1994. Can't offer much help beyond that.
>>28383618
Yeah I figure post-war, I can't find any wartime German ones that had single button ear flaps. Least on a desert cap.
Might just be commercial/repro.
>>28383499
Hate being such a newfag, but what is it?
>inb4 brushstroke pattern hurr
>>28383677
Reproduction Rhoddesian camo from rhoddiecunt
>>28383677
If I recall it's a rare Autumn version of brushstroke.
>>28383702
Beautiful
>Update on s2000, incorporated vertical repeat into reconstruction, working on horizontal, I think I'm getting close.
>>28383499
GIB.
>>28383658
I don't think it's wartime either, so if it is issue kit I'd be looking at sub-Saharan Africa. But it could be from anywhere really, without any markings we are limited to slightly informed guesses.
>>28383702
What a fine upstanding man Eugene was.
>>28383491
Honestly I don't know right now. I'll know if I win the next thing I'm bidding on lol
>>28383677
Extremely rare arid version of Rhodie.
>>28383702
I don't think that photograph shows the arid season version in use. The green parts are too distinct compared to the "green" parts in the arid version in other period photos.
>>28383774
Your Desert T-Pat isn't? I can't recall seeing any others.
>>28383422
Old thread died already?
>>28383491
Can't post photos from my phone but I guess it would be the Hussar tunic.
I have groupings worth more but for a single piece I'm sure it is the Hussar tunic.
>>28383803
Now that I look at it I think you're right.
Besides the one you posted I don't have any other photos of it in use.
>>28383806
it probably is.
>>28383828
From some other collector.
>>28383865
Outside of these 2 picture I've never seen anyone with the pants.
>>28383872
one of those guys isnt wearing pants.
>>28383894
Who needs pants?
>>28383894
Honest question, would you blow him for his jacket?
>>28383941
Yes.

C'mon mang
>>28383960
Posting from 3 computers is hard.
>>28383949
He's probably not even wearing the arid version.
Based on the smudge I'm seeing it looks like it could be the earliest version printed on denim that fades really quickly.
>>28383491
Either my Lizard or Iranian. I wish I could say my M83 but it's not.
>>28383991
Never sold the Iranian?
>>28383994
Makes me want Schneetarn, but I'd never get to use it.
>>28383994
Oh hey Lanza.
>>28383499
Dubs confirms.. Goddamn..
>>28383940
You offering pants? Ray seems to assume I'm made of money.
>>28384197
Ray assumes EVERYONE is made of money.
>>28384227
This is also true.
Anyway... Made people butthurt by being the only man in a craft store. Octopus pattern related, right?
>>28384164
please call me lasagna
>>28384036
Yeah never sold I also still have a paddyflage. Some stuff just takes time I guess. Everytime I am able to buy surp it seems something breaks to change that.
>>28384492
The bottom half of your face makes me think you're a Lanza Mcully Culkin crossbreed.
>>28383994
>>28384492
Is it airshit? I've seen that polymer furniture somewhere before.
>>28385169
I want one with the coloration of your other one.
>>28385187
The flowing blood one?
>>28385151
No its real, its just aftermarket wood didn't look taticool to me
>>28385206
Is >>28385169 not flowing blood too?
I thought they both were.
>>28385249
they are. The other one is the more common one thought.
>>28385169
>>28385249
I'd call this one blood vines.
>>28385221
Awesome man, really sweet.
>>28385258
>>28385269
Camopedia seems to just call it "vertical stripe".
I like "blood vines" better though.
But yes, I like flowing blood.
>>28385306
>>28385306
BAH that's boring lol
>>28383491
Monetarily or sentimentally? I love my TAZ 90 set but it isn't worth the most in my collection.
Ok surpfags, I've got some good news about a tiny side project I've been working on for a few weeks.
A few months ago, I found a pattern that I instantly fell in love with, that being the Romanian urban-test pattern of the classic M1994. I did a little research about this unique version and it was never officially issued, but apparently is still used by cadets in the SRI military/student's academy.
I've finish piecing it together, and it was relatively easy, as it has a very small tessellation size. I've done a drawing that's the correct scale and size of the origional (thanks to some very helpful ebay sellers) and I'm ready to have it printed. I've also found a company that's relatively local to SC and "reasonably" priced, and I'm heading over there next week to select a good fabric and have a sample made, as I figured it would be better to feel the quality in person rather than judge by pictures and descriptions.
The fabric will most likely be nothing special like cordura or some super waterproof rip-stop miracle of science, but more like the original quality of good old surplus, and I don't have the money or time to find a manufacturer and have have jackets/parkas made like Telny did, but I'll rather be making something simple like hats by hand. (Don't worry, I'm plenty competent to make a good quality hat.)
The last two questions I have are: One, would you guys be interested in hats made out of this and two, what pattern/size (some average size, I can't make custom ones for everyone) hat would you guys want them made in? I was thinking the classic M93 style Romanian cap, just for shits and giggles. (Pic related, the hat style, not actual pattern colors)
Submit thoughts please.
>>28385768

>inb4 Not mine, I can only dream
>>28385777
>>28385768
Definite proof that this is another one of rhodie's alt names/trips.
Fuck off we don't need more counterfeit scams, cuckold.
>>28385825
Do people (other than you) actually believe this? Also, happy new year guys.

>>28385915

>Gook in name
>never posts when real Rhodesian Camo (or Alpenfudge) actively posts
How can you not when the evidence is so overwhelming?
>>28385707
This greatcoat is probably one of the best pieces. Especially considering I got it for $25.
>>28385777
That is a sexy pattern. As long as the price wouldn't be high like Telny's jackets were and they are of good quality I'd be down for a 59.
Where should I order Alpenflage from? (shipping to US)
>>28385992
Czech local surp store. Outside that, there's many places
>>28385992
Like anywhere, dude. Any surplus sight has it. eBay has oodles of it.
>>28383491
My rarest piece is probably this Alpenflage "Zeltenheit" as it was called in the listing.
The thing is retarded big so I couldn't get the whole thing in the picture.
>>28385992
Sportsman's guide occasionally has some at a decent price, used to run a deal for 4 VG condition field shirts for like $20. EBay is your friend here, if you want multiple items (like a shirt and a hat) see if you can get a seller to comine shipping. (Remember, the worst anyone can say is no)
>>28386504
I stumbled upon this:
http://www.indiedb.com/members/ironclad2014/images/sandf-2000-soldier-camo
If it's the correct pattern, sorry to waste your effort.
Happy new years fellow camo collecting autists! My resolution is to buy more exotic camo patterns
Pic related, my closet currently
>>28386517
A few threads ago someone else posted this and I almost had a fucking heart attack, but after looking at it for a little while I realized that it wasn't the genuine pattern. It's a little odd to describe, but most of the shapes are angular in the wrong places, and rounded in certain parts that normally would have a sharp(er) bend. Also, the color pallet is off, but that isn't really a reliable giveaway as those can be easily changed in gimp/ps.
Either way, thanks for posting it again, I forgot I grab from the last thread it was in, and if push comes to shove and I can't find a piece to fit in the real pattern, I might be able to snatch something from this. I'm really happy to have a bunch of other surpfags to fall back on for refrence pictures and info, thanks everyone.
>>28386517
Have you seen this one?
>>28386891
>>28385777
Depends on the price per unit desu.
>>28383994
Confirmed for Adam Lanza
>>28385768
I'd be interested depending on price. Though I'd rather have a uniform lol.
I'd say make them size 61
>>28386638
Yeah, that's been really helpful, thanks.
>>28389463
Really nice, I just love the M-43 style hats
>>28389849
Bump.
Alpen Czech email
I'm back baby.
My father and I have radically different ideas about country walking attire.
>>28390871
Welcome back! You and your dad look ridiculously alike.
Weegee jackets are 10/10 by the way buy one.
Wool things arrived while I was away.
>>28390890
I know, great isn't it. My brother works at some outdoor place so he and my dad are kitted out in all this high-tech gear and I'm there in surplus. Very funny.
I had to remove some obviously attached aftermarket velcro from the boonie. It's a very green gray.
So follow something an anon posted a few weeks ago:
Fit idea:
- baggy trousers, worn high waisted
- Swedish wool tunic
- grey watch cap worn high on the head
- brown boots instead of black jungle boots
Glad to have you back, Telnybro.
>>28390935
Altered to my own taste of course. Couldn't find a grey beanie I liked.
>>28390937
Who made that? It's great!
This tunic is the best £18 I've ever spent. Not a mark on it.
And speaking of karst, buy a parka you fucks.
>>28389463
Oh that reminds me, think I should give sewing a go? I can use one, and a cheap machine is what, £80 off the ebay? Still got that spare karst material to use.
>>28391020
Why not? It wouldn't hurt (as long as you don't practice on the Karst). Also, Czech email.
>>28390871
Glad you had a good time, good to have you back. Happy new year!
>>28391067
Oh yeah, happy new year.
>>28391104
Are you gonna be printing any other camo patterns?
I heard from. Camo anon.
"Oh man.. What year is it still?
I've got a splitting head ache, some weird residue on my pants and bite marks on the neck. I think I had an intimate encounter with a raccoon... Pls send halp."
I think he'll be fine.
>>28391159
KEKEKEK
>>28391124
I still haven't made a choice. I've learnt a lot from making the parkas, and I need dosh in the next couple of months. Some time in the summer I'll decide on a pattern and try out a BDU style set, see how expensive they come out.
>>28391168
I know I've asked a lot of questions before, but can I shoot you an email with just a few more? Sorry to bombard you as soon as you get back.
>>28391159
Hm, NYE went pretty well for him then.
>>28391168
So many patterns.
>>28391168
You should make tigerstiripe or splinter camo. And how about instead of a BDu pattern use a slant pocket vietnam shirt style?
>>28391206
I'd need a shirt to take a pattern from. Whatever design, it has to be barebones. Buttons and possibly a drawstring only. If I can simplify the construction I can reduce the cost, probably drastically so.
>>28391191
Go for it.
>>28391233
Jungle jackets are very simple, just as simple as a BDU.
>>28391233
>don't have you email
>>28390969
I did. In addition to sewing things, I also enjoy drawing.
>>28391020
Go for it. Having a sewing machine and knowing how to use it opens up a whole new world of opportunities.
>>28391233
Welcome back m8.
>>28391233
BTW, i didn't get a Xmas bonus like I thought I would. (That was going to be my karst payment) be patient tho. I'll get it eventually.
>>28391233
you can find any slant pocket shirt on ebay for 20-30$
>>28391249
And trousers?
>>28391266
[email protected]
>>28391270
Man of many talents.
I don;t know how quickly this kind of thing can be picked up. I would just expect to be able to use spare material for accessories.
>>28391272
Ta.
Glad we're back to the point where we're making new threads before 404
Also Telny is alive
>>28391289
Shame. Well it;s reserved so it can sit around for a while. I don;t need them to sell, but it;d be nice to clear my debt before march.
>>28391293
Sure,
>>28391295
I do quite a bit of sewing (thanks mom) and just learned by sitting down with the manual and goofing off with a few yards of scrap material. Depending on the popularity of your machine, you might be able to find something on youtube.
>>28391312
You guys really missed me that much?
>>28391319
Your hat idea is good. Secetly I feel like I've started a trend of things being made.
>>28391295
The trousers are fairly simple too.
>>28391331
Went like this
>Anon: Where's telny?
Everyone else: It's been one day, he's on vacation.
>Anon: Where's telny?
Everyone else: It's been two days, chill out.
>Anon: Where's tenly?
Everyone else: It's been three days, calm down.
>Repeat every day for x amount of days
>Threads die very quickly, idiots end up making two more before previous one 404'd
>>28391355
I'm still debating trousers. There's a place down the road I'm going to ask about them, because that's what he does. Very basic though, don;t know how they'd hold up. Biggest issue is the size.
>>28391364
How long before I'm actually pronounced ded?
>>28391343
You and Estonihat-guy have, to me at least, and it's also a way for me to get my mitts on unobtanium patterns in whatever clothing item I like without waitng 8 months for a new original to show up for <$600
>>28391386
Exactly so. If it ain't out there, make it.
>>28391398
^And this is the place where people making stuff won't be total jews trying to make a profit^
>>28391381
I'd give you a week
Welcome back
>>28391635
>>28391764
I'm gonna get to those hopefully Monday
Ever find out what the dark color one is for? Private purchase?
>>28391381
Funeral preparations were already being made.
>>28391821
Still got no idea.
>>28391837
I should find the OD cap and trousers that go to it.
Britland is about the only place I can find them though.
>>28391868
Trousers are good. I don;t think I've seen the caps before now.
>>28391887
Sportsmans Guide at one point brought over a ton but they seem to have dried up
>>28391938
I'll have to take a look.

Not as bad as his TAZ 90 that's going for $999. I'm not even sure if it's legit. It's got some weird inconsistencies.

>you cheeki breeki
>>28392908

>>28393106
>that price
How cute
>>28393373
Do they print onto a mixed fabric?
>>28393410
Yes, but they might already have a good mix. Here's the fabrics they have to print on, but I can call to ask if they'll do a fabric that isn't listed.\
It's just that seeing the names of these isn't the same as seeing and feeling them irl. I'm going to order a fabric swatch book from them if I need to.
>>28393442
Pffff, I don't know what most of those are. You're on your own with that.
>>28393493
Lol that's what I mean. What did you have yours printed on?
>>28393528
The 10oz cotton canvas. They could print on a 50/50 mix ripstop, but I'd have to ask for it specially and it caused the colours to come out much lighter.
>>28393542
I guess for a hat ripstop isn't that important. Were you satisfied with the 10oz? Or would you have liked something heavier?
>>28393559
The 10oz was just perfect I'd say. Could probably go heavier for headwear. What are you lining it with?
>>28393582
Just some light-ish cotton fabric I have on hand. It's a medium grey, so I figured it would look fine.
>>28393601
Should work fine. I've got a couple of meters of the grey shower-proof ripstop I used for the parka pockets left.
>>28393628
Are you willing to say how much you paid per meter for the karst?
>>28393747
I'm very transparent about what everything cost.
£15/m. Each parka represents 3m of material.
Are there sits where you can get a roll of actual camo cloth? I think it'd be neat to make a stocking out of our favorite camo patterns. It'd og like this
anon why is your new stocking all camoflauged
>j-just hang it up mom
anon it look silly, please hang up your old stocking
>h-hang it up
>>28394227
I've seen Korean fabric on ebay, like turtle shell and noodle. No idea for Rareâ„¢ patterns. I'm sure you can find US patterns and DPM and fleck.
>>28394286
>make camo stocking
>cant find it because its camo
,':^)
>>28394227
Search on eBay, there's some sellers that have a good selection. I mean, you're going to find a shit ton of like pink blue and orange versions of woodland and a lot of realtree type hunting patterns, but if you look long enough, you'll find actual patterns. I mean you can also jut find ones people have already made
Is it possible to get that 8bit Estonian camo yet?
>>28394286
>>28394344
I just looked and I found a wide variety of patterns with fabric. hell even that are UCP with the brown in it
>>28394393
Our resident Estonianon gets fabric from time to time and makes various caps and lists some of them on ebay, but besides him and very rarely an older/higher level collector selling off part of his collection, it's still very rare.
>>28394413
I like UCP-D better than normal UCP. I wish we adopted it.
>>28391837
I think this is a replacement garment for when issued jackets get fucked up. I've seen a similar looking dark coloured one for the new pattern for sale from a guy who was in the army. My other guess is that it's home guard issued.
>>28385941
What country is that greatcoat from? Also where did you get it? Ive always loved greatcoats but its hard to find nice ones for a decent price.
New stuff
>>28395127
Switzerland. eBay. I got mine with this overseas cap for $50 which is not a price you should expect. There was one on eBay for $300 last I saw.
>>28395127
It's swiss.
Picked up another one of these for the guy who was interested.
>>28395180
Button that shit up.
>>28395127
>>28395196
Ew no, I don't like when buttons fall off.
>>28395171

>>28395200

>>28395238

>>28395257
Is it a Swiss one? If so that's pretty solid. Greatcoats very in price based off of where they're from.
>>28395410
Yea it's Swiss, they had a ton of American ones from the 40s for around the same price too.
>>28395376
>not re-inforcing the stitching on your buttons as soon as you get something
>>28395167
>>28395369
Hell yeah
>>28395420
>Yes it's Swiss
Nice. Are the buttons plastic or brass?
Just got this 2 days ago from a local place. I found a balaclava and helmet cover in one of the pockets after I got home. Perfect for removal of kebab.
>>28395533
That's in super excellent condition good find
>>28395590
there were at least 5 others there but they were more torn and ruffed up. most of them were pretty faded. I'm going to go back and see if I can buy just the removable hood from one since this one was missing it.
>>28395533
>>28395631
Any have the fur collars? Also nice patch, not too commonly seen.
>>28395689
Not sure. they all had the liners but id have to see them again to know. I'll definitely look for one when I go back.
>>28395711
I need hoods and belts for my Yugo M77s.
I do love those vetrojkas though, they look really cozy.

>>28396097

A set of that is on my 'to buy' list.

Want it? I don't really collect US kit; only grabbed the bear shirt because of the novelty factor and cheap price.
>>28400316
What's your shipping?
>>28400325
The post office just raised their rates, but I believe it would still fall in the 10-15 EUR range.
>>28400365
I've got £18 in my paypal.
>>28400379
How's 13 quid shipped sound?
I'll even thrown in the original "Karst merchant" sketch.

What pattern is that top?
>>28401526
it's called dispersion.
>>28401526
It's the urban dispersion from arktis. I'd get the green version, but if you think my parkas are expensive look up Ark Air on the Present London website.
