Any tips on drawing Military camos?
Hello Anon!
It's been a long time since I made a drawing tutorial/tips. This one actually caught my eye since I did have a hard time on this, but after a few months of research, I finally got the hang of it!
Here's my way/tips on military camos!
Know that there are LOTS and LOTS of camo patterns, each one is for different types of terrains, and each country's military uses different types of camo patterns as well.

So, decide where your character come from. Then, look up on Google the camo patterns that the military uses, or you can use these websites :
Camopedia, a website that is dedicated to documenting the camouflage design, development, and history.
Wikipedia List of Military Clothing Camouflage Patterns according to the countries.
2. Once you found the name of the pattern, search it up on google for tracing and reference. You can even find the a free vector on google as well. If you can, find a large image and repeatable image so that you can make it look seamless.

3. Trace it/ just save the image. Yes it's fine. camo patterns doesn't really belong to anyone, and you can use it freely, especially for art. I usually make vector image and saves it as an asset so I can just use the image every time I'm drawing a military character.
How I Apply Camo Pattern Image to My Characters!
I'm going to draw Captain Eleanor "Ladybug" Graham, my Call of Duty OC. She's an American combat medic, which mainly uses Operational Camouflage Pattern (OCP). Here's how I apply the camos :
Draw the character and add base color with the clothes on different layer.
Color the character on a different layer. Alpha Lock it.
Open the camo pattern image, put it above the base color layer, then clip it down! IMPORTANT : the size of the camo pattern is actually pretty big on the uniform. Look up references to see how the camo pattern scales to the clothes. Don't make it look too small.
Don't be afraid to copy paste it over and over and place it carefully to make it seamless.
4. To shade the clothes, add another layer above, clip it, then change the effect to multiply. Then, shade away!
