Veg is used to blend into the environment and help break up your outline, not alert others that you are under the moving stack of straw.

Fantastic job!
As mentioned, can you post any pics from a distance, that is where the rubber meets the road.
Luck!

Even without seeing the "working" side, to me it looks as though you have used too much material. I've made quite a few over the past 30 years and most soldiers (or anyone) making their first couple use to much material and learn as they progress.

From the picture you did an excellent job. Just be sure not to over veg it or you will stand out like a sore dick at a porno convention. It's all about balance. Now you have to get out and play in the mud with it then hose it down and repeat. It will become more comfortable as it breaks in. Before school I stalked every available minute so that I could work out the kinks and customize it for every situation. I also found that my skids needed to be adjusted and was able to do so before school. Also, very important is ventilation in the back. I assume that you probably have alredy done this. Thumb loops and boot loops are also essential for change of direction. Once again great job and good luck stalking.
