First introduced in 2010, A-TACS FG established itself as a truly unique alternative to the heavily digitized foliage patterns that were then common in the tactical market.
When designing a green variant follow-up to the already popular original A-TACS AU Camo pattern, the easy answer would have been to simply re-color the existing pattern and release it as a green variant.
Taking that approach may have been easier and faster however, it was not the approach DCS took to create an effective temperate climate pattern.
The characteristic environmental elements and shapes found in greener, more temperate settings needed to be addressed.
The answer was to create a brand-new pattern from the ground up.
Utilizing numerous shades of green sampled directly from a variety of forested and transitional terrain elements combined with various shades of earth,.
A-TACS FG Camo was developed to be effective in a wide range of temperate environments.
As with the original A-TACS AU (Arid/Urban) Camo pattern, the organic pixels in the micro patterns are grouped into larger, more defined “macro” shapes creating larger more defined patterns.
The larger organic shapes and strategically placed shadow elements within the macro pattern help to create a unique three-dimensional effect.
Additionally, strategic use of blending and color overlays were used to create a more organic soft-edged look to the pattern.
