Anyone know of a real gas mask or mask that looks like a SEVA style helmet??
@onyx rose
Diving helmet/mask
friggen amazing work


I’m thinking about turning the M81 camo “i’m looking for my wife that has been dead for three years” jacket into a freedom jacket
I got both of these for $20 each at a flea market yesterday with a bunch of metal CDs
And I really don’t have a STALKER jacket to represent my love for these games
Honestly M81s not really recognizable for freedom.
IMO you could use it for a loner, that just picked up one piece of camo, but not everybody would agree
The plain jacket looks pretty on point for loner though
Finally own some flecktarn

I can recommend using a specific tool (not sure how its called) to cut the sown on thread. Leaves no marks and is also pretty easy
Yeah, my gf uses very small and cheap tool to do that, can be bought in any textile/sewing shop
Gotta send a pic when I will be at home
Yeah my gf set me on the right path there too

Fan-faction patches I made years ago while waiting for HoC
What's their lore?
that will take a minute but ill try to make it short
Tsepi (Chains) are the opposite of Renegades. Former bandits that became less hostile and try to make amends with other factions, as being outcasts is not their preferred way of living, especially when major threats like Monolith exist.
**Bryhada (Brigade) **- former Military that wanted to live the stalker life. No longer bound to their posts, they can do a lot more and often assist the Military in exchange for weapons, rigs and supplies from the mainland.
**Fury **- basically a gang of military-tacticool larpers from the EU/US western world (e.g. Lord Miles and Garand Thumb fans) that went to the zone for extra survival larp. They are great with guns and at gunfighting, but suck against mutants and anomalies. Also, they really suffer due to language barriers.
Kapkan (Beartrap) - solitary hunters that dont have any beef with other factions. They hunt mutants and make a lot of makeshift stuff to perfect their hunting art. For example - homebrew 12ga slugs made of dense artifacts to pierce pseudogiant skulls. Red Forest residents.
Syaivo (The Shining) - basically the church of Chornobyl. Not exactly fanatics, they simply believe that no place in the world should be without God's word. They're no pacifists at all, and in nightime they do heavy raids on Monolith. Reside in the Swamps, taking hold of the church.
Control Group - PMC formed of former Duty, Freedom and Merc members. Funded to protect the UN researchers. However, they do enjoy grabbing more than they have the right to.
Chorna Rada (The Black Congress, I guess?) - a unity of different factions that was formed to oppose Control's attempts to fully control the zone. They suppress their expansion, and believe that Control should just stay by their research facilities and not go any further.
BASED
but also artisticly those amblems and logos looks so cool
are you made those or someone made for you?
Thanks a ton! I enjoy heraldics and patchmaking overall, glad to hear I nailed it
All made by me just for fun. Im no stalker modmaker, I just love the series
I very much appreciate this score 
Ayo What's Good? I Went to a Comicon on Saturday, thought i might drop here my Army Stalker Cosplay. It Ain't Much but i'm pretty happy with how it came out. This Cosplay is Straight outta the Cordon Checkpoint (Remember i'm Trying to Protect you from The Zone, not the Other way Around).

So far for a rookie fit
steals your artefact cutely 
Jokes on you even I don't know where I am
Can recommend Smersh rigs. Its been the missing puzzle piece for me to make my stuff look Stalker-ish. Got myself a cheaper one from Aliexpress and its surprisingly decent, especially for the price.
Judging by the review of a seemingly more experienced Ukrainian frontline soldier, the original one made by SSO (more so for the ones made in recent years) is basically just that Aliexpress quality anyways.
Beware that you cant remove the mag pouches though, part of the webbing is attached to them.
@cerulean musk @proper rune Hope you two don't mind, but I had such fun with my joke idea of our Stalkers forming a squad to hit up Pripyat that I poked an artist to start a little sketch, just for a laugh. They said it'll be done in a couple days.
Looks like he's starting with @proper rune 's Stalker, who I presumed would be a Freedomer given his name 😛
bro sick asf
ive got better (normal) photos
god someday i'll be an amazing at sewing (or have the money to pay someone for stuff like this lmao)
and some more cursed to finish sh!tpost
it took a lot of time to collect, money wasn't really a problem, price was quiet low
well due to the ongoing war all sort of sunrise Stalker suits have dissapeared from the market, and for some reason in the States no-one makes em or sells
etsy went dead with no more stalker stuff
deyam, nice business plan for moving in to USA, i wish i could, but migration in to stats is such a "NICE" process
i see you are one of those french girls
whataheeeell?! Did u drew that?
no i have overworked children in the basement that draw for me as i don't find ai ethical
ahahah im realy empressed! But, i must do comingout - im not a french girl, im actualy russian guy=|
Sometimes you just have to DIY your own outfit
Reason: Bad word usage
i legimatly cannot sew , i got f'd up hands
cant hold stuff still so i dont needa stab myself constantly i already get enuf cuts from work lmao
Then just idk be like me, wear random stuff that fit stalker
i just saw your picture of sheep post and decided to do a sheep art on it since i found it really funny lol

Bam
Also I'm still scared from individual named Angela
Thank you, nice drawing i realy like that (I'll steal it).

DA! I will use it very much!😎

dunno bout u but it does make me think
OwO detected
i trace a photo badly to put into a funny context in 30mins: beloved

ive also did lowcost cosplay on freedom, just for lulz, never used it outside of a house https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/524229636599840769/830380127879823391/1615896774730.jpg?ex=67629bc2&is=67614a42&hm=bc26418cdeb40fe98024fbc7a24d0f5f00df4e397b73405d1e09379386e1399c&
my love for sht post is as strong as it was back then (main acc)
no shot lmao 😂
Freedom cosplayers dont go enough into the whole anarchism shtick imo, always like to see it being done
to be honest, in games that theme is also didnt really shown except A logo
i just wanted to be funniest freedomer in group
Aw thank you (never make OwO again. I swear to god)
(No hard feelings bro, you did good)
+w+ gotcha
Yeah in the games you dont really get to see that part much
Treading through the Swamps

Don't blame me, blame drunken renegades
@pure ocean whatcha think? 
coolio fixed the colors and added a patch, i just did a quick trace and color pick so its yours to use :p
(love the eyebrows)
Eh, I'm just happy that someone bothered making a sketch of me
glad to make yo day better
Thats an awesome shot

@lethal owl hey bro if ur gonna smack around SFM again, a good one if u wanna do more stuff around psy waves/zombified should do all factioners of the zone falling victim to emmission or psy emmiters
That M65 drab is an excellent Rookie jacket option.
🚫 genreleap, you can't use that.
except if its clear sky, 300 grenades and 100 AP shots
@pure ocean my kind gentleman if you could.
i mean if it was freedom then maybe 
don't blame me, blame the doorguy that forces me to go around the god damm bulding every single time
Eh it's okay
You can always do it on your own by lowering the opacity of the image then tracing it. takes round 30mins with colors there are free painting sw options (krita on pc)
The thing is I got no pc (plus holy sh*t do I suck when it comes to drawing)
At least I can edit stuff
Monolith slander is crazy
@proper rune @cerulean musk Commission progress so far. Looks like Speed was first and Paydirt will be last.
lets goo
Man I gotta start learning how To draw
To be clear, I am not the artist. The guy I commissioned is called saltedtoast63, and he gets all creative credit. I just put him up to it 😛
This is soo cool. Did you make the gauss by yourself?
WHAT
I will hang you by the bloodsucker village if you call stick the funny talking rock again 
Monolith = Stinky

Vfx test for a stalker short film I’m working on

friggen sick, i completly forgot about stuff like that for cosplay stuff lmao
if i was could get good at editing i could start using my bear detector i bought for photos making it look 100x better
I just had a friend 3d print me an echo detector for the film, it’s so cool to hold props from games
i bought mine from a UA dealer on etsy i was kinda shocked it actually arrived since the last time i ordered something from RU or 🇺🇦 it got stuck in customs for ages
Nope, just bought it
In an abandoned farm in dark valley?
Eep

where stalker
the wat
Anyone have recommendations for Monolith-like snow/urban camo for cosplay? Considering a Strider getup. I think the Varusteleka finnish m05 snow camo would work well but it's a bit pricey
They're asking if Clear Sky were femboys.
is grass green
lol my wolf pic got turned into a sticker 
If you drink the weird water, yes
That's yours? I have been using it for a while, after seeing Tejas Stalker use it, lol.
Ye I made it in sfm
A digital pattern may be a bit too modern for them? I think if you adjust your kit likewise to try and make a faithful but more modernised (and maybe a tad westernized?) it could fit.
Big issue with the monolith camo is that its pure fantasy and you got no real counterpart, so you kinda gotta make due. If you want to be more faithful however, I would try to find a non digital camo with black, brown and white tones. Theres a semi common form of snow camo in M81 woodland shape(?) around, that fits pretty well
Yeah was also looking at the usual cheapo Rothco M81 urban stuff, seems like an alright match. Plus can pull double duty for a HECU cosplay
Doubling as HECU is something I never thought about. Makes me want to put together one even more
Arkan-GS is supposed to be a bolt action rifle? Wut?
Yup, it's a very weird specimen. It does not feature the AK gas block whatsoever, so you have to rack the bolt back after each shot
And I didn't even make this up - it's a real weird niche gun
What was the point of it? Recreational shooting?
Makes me think of this great piece:
https://youtu.be/rZZTD3w_a5Q?feature=shared

Today we are looking at a unique rifle in the National Firearms Centre collection - at first glance it appears to be an AK in a full-length rifle cartridge, using a Bren gun magazine. A closer look will show that it is actually a bolt action rifle, and a careful inspection just makes things stranger.
The...
No, HOPAK was an experimental specialized military rifle if i am not mistaken
I'd assume it was a way to reuse old surplus AKs to replace mosins in night ops
There isnt that much info about them online, so I'd assume they'd find their way into the Zone eventually as a military reject like the L85 did in the original trilogy
Judging by what I heard about the AK platform, im not terribly surprised it didnt get anywhere. Very funny odd little gun though
can anyone please explain why my image was deleted 
Holy Monolith`s Preacher
What goggles are those?
Old Swiss mountain goggles
The new detector is peak design
I’m thinking about getting myself some Floppy disks to make Ecologist-Data out of it
How much per piece?
Recently looked at walkmans out of curiosity and those got hella expensive. Richters walkman could be more expensive than a tad older second hand phone.
Sometimes nostalgia tech gets super expensive
Its 15€ for 10 disks
But the price-per-piece depends on the vendor
It’s eBay after all
Oh thats more than fine lol

Stalker Airsoft RP community is massive in Ukraine...duh
And I'm one of them
FREEDOM OR DEATH!!!
BROOOOOO u got a friggen BALLER Guardian of Freedom suit
you build it urself??
Kind of
My aunt work in a clothing workshop, asked her to make me one, a couple of Guardians for my fellows from Kyiv RP Freedom community and a few Wind of Freedom's
But the materials, schematics and etc were mine
The results are excellent
dude im friggen jealous of u
the suit goes absolutley hard
S teir stuff man
how much was everything if u have a rough guestimate?
It was almost 6 or 7 years ago
By the exchange rate of that time it would be approx 200 USD
But I would do some more work on it (knee/shoulder and elbow pads need some rework to gain more bulk and the chest plate needs it too, but thanks for your kind words ppl), but war has it's own thoughs regarding this matter
hell yeah !!!!! that's sick
I'm currently working on some plans for my Stalker suit chestplate type thingy I wanna make soon, and I made these cool looking blueprint template sheets to draw my concepts on lol
If you can, do you think you could send pics of just your chestpiece on it's own? I could really use the inspiration, and I wanna see how yours works
hopin the war turns to yalls favor 🙏 an be safe
The only thing I would argue, that makes the suit A tier is the vest, which is just flat with a graphic of paddings, but overall a solid piece of eq 
Yep, as a user of this thing, I agree with you, the chest plate is flat, would be better if it was a bit beefier
I took some photos, will do some editing and will send it here
Nice, big thanks :) your suit looks great !!!
So
Material - Oxford (do not remenber the thickness). Chose it for the "leathery" looks (in the trilogy this chest looked like made out of leather) and to protect from rain and water.
Shoulers - velcro
Inside - thin layer of mat foam (for BB protection and thickness, but would be better with beefier foam)
holy shit, that looks amazing man
also yeah, I was planning one something like 1in polyethylene foam or something to really fit it out
but you did a really good job of that, looks fantastic!!!
Fun fact, from what I and my gf who is also making cosplays, saw, the psz5s are made from "Kirza" (idk how to name it in en), an rubberlike material that looks like leather, yet is much more resistant and not very skin-friendly
You wearing some chest rig with that? Noticed the distinct lack of accessible pouches in a lot of ingame suits
Only few suits have a reasonable amount of mag pouches close. One of the new warden outfits with the big armor plate has some for example
Yeah, since I don't care that much about getting the exact materials 100% game accurate and all that, I'm gonna go with 600D Cordura
Cosplay is just about that! I can't imagine wearing most of the suits from stalker for a few hours, let alone a day. My own Sunrsie dubbed Moonrise is a mix od 270g/m² and 320g/m2 100% cotton with vest and front panel of suit made from waterproof cordura (idk the D wariant).
If I would use any more of original textiles, I would pass out in it during summer, or drown in my own sweat xD
My next suit will also use mostly cotton, the 270+ is resitant enough to go for an asg games without problems.
To hell with Kirza😁
Using Backpack with "airtank" + two leg pouches like those in game on Zarya/Sunrise suit
Also when there is an intence combat up ahead, also add a warbelt
Noice, I was planning on running some belt gear too
I ordered the flecktarn parka and pants yesterday, so those should come after christmas
My Guardian is made out of Rip-stop textile but it has mesh material on the hood on the side (for better ventilation and hearing) and on the armpits
Some of our Freedom RP members also you use 2 piece sets, but I personally prefer one piece tank suit
I would've, but I can't find any in flecktarn
especially with a hood
I might tuck the parka into the pants and then belt it to give the impression though lol
So am I
Mine's custom made😁
Oh shoot, that's really cool!! I'm not skilled or knowledgeable enough to do the entire suit from scratch but maybe someday haha
too much headache
you will need to redo the pants - add the "bombshell"
If it is not a tank suit from the start, no need to go that far, comfort is also important
I'll see when it arrives, I honestly have so many ideas I want to try with my whole kit rn lol
Apropos, I was looking at new psz5s details and from one angle, the "ventilated" parts look more like a dotted, hard pattern (kinda as SuperFabric). But it is a mesh for better ventilation right?
did not check the latest models from the game, but as I know, there is some textile with perforations but it is not mesh and vise versa - it is stirdy like leather
Yeah I figured those alone would be not enough for anything more than taking potshots
In my suit I used camo mesh from my old camo set for the vents so it blends perfectly
I can recommend webbing of some sort. Got a knockoff smersh recently and it fits pretty well aesthetically. Its pretty much what you see ingame in terms of belt equipment
on the contrary - one leg pouch can carry a sawed off M79 Grenade launcher and a couple of grenades for it
Yeah it's kinda uniqe, like it's a part of under-suit, the whole psz5 seems to be 1 piece like motorcycle racing suits, which, goddamn is bad. Gotta get 2-3 piece out of it.
So if done right military backpack + two of these can contain a hell lot of stuff
M79? Isnt that thing the size of a sawn off shotgun?
a bit shorter I'd say
Oh well
Personally like having mags close and ready, but you can definitely make due.
A lot less needed when running mid-high cap magazines
No high-cap mags allowed on our RP project, only for LMGs
Stalker RP is more about talking your way out
For stuff ready and close to use, I advise an battle belt with straps, easy to wear and distributes weight nice
Mid caps are impossible to take away from airsofters though. Those are allowed?
Ye otherwise you could just play a skirmish
Pretty much what webbing is
gunning happens only with mutants, factions wars (not often happens) and Monolithians
Tbh, I may have thought about webbing, but forgot the name xD
Damn you got anybody playing mutant and also accepting getting shot over and over again?
Also depending on the rules of the game, even interactions with mutants can be without gunning - running away, trapping, tactical thinking, pretending to be dead etc
On the last game before the war started I played as Bloodsucker😁
Smersh (a "semi-modern" ,read slightly modernized, Russian rig) left and ALICE (older US webbing) right
Game managers provide protective costumes for players who go as mutants
Oh yeah, I have a smersh repro
it's not... great quality but it gets the job done
Yeah, I got different one, wait, maybe it's visible somewhere...
Was it fun? I cant really see the fun in getting seal clubbed by people with guns
Sad that authentic ones have become unobtanium :((
I can actually take a picture of my smersh rig while sitting at my desk here lmao, gimme a second
Yeah, I've got similar set, and for gunning phases I use the belt part of it, without the shoulders straps
Review from a Ukrainian soldier tells me its trash in its original form. Says production quality always been bad and only gotten worse over time.
They recommended (without trying) getting the Kommandostore version produced in Britian, as it has a chance of being more high quality than original SSO.
Their overall assessment was it was outdated and only popular because western airsofters thought it was cool. Got called out lol
IT WAS MASSIVE FUN
When you are almost immortal (by the rules, players cannot kill you by simply dumping all the ammo into you, they need to use tactics and trick, and if you yourself thought it was clever, you die and drop the loot for them)
Holy sh..t, I have the same belt system (recognized by the shoulders)
I never had some much fun, making grown ass men sh..t themselves😂
How could you get killed specifically?
Anything goes, except dumping all the ammo into me
Tactics, flanking, grenades, knife killing
Bandits on that game killed me by wrapping my legs by their "dead" bodies, so that one last alive person could shoot me
I thought it was clever idea and I died and dropped loot for such clever kill
Sounds fun. Only sizeable one here in Germany has no monolith as a fighting faction and mutants arent hostile. That premise isnt too great imo, but its the only one here as far as im aware.
Biggest conflict is military vs the other existing factions
On our games, mutant not only mutant but also referees and GMs
we could give or not give loot depending on the kill and we could give penalties
Penalties like?
If you break the rules, I could give you a card with a build in chip that will put poison, bleed or anomaly effect into your game PDA
Damn, thats some high tech rp there
We have electornic PDAs, anomalies, mutant (burers, controllers can psi attack you via this PDA)
Sounds cool though, definitely would want to come over for some more authentic games. Once the war is over and my Ukrainian has become good enough
Damn PDAs? The entrance fee mustve been big
Ukranian is not mandatory though, most of people from big cities, understand and can speak English
There also some guys from our community who RP English speaking foreigners who came to the Zone😂
Last game for me was Free of charge as a mutant, but for other players it was approx 150-200 USD
But the game lasted 3 full days
I would but... they're Kommandostore
(and also it's like 500 bucks)
Anything I should know about that store? Never bought from them, didnt feel like paying the premium either
They're probably fine and this isn't a big deal at all but they sell... questionable patches
I'm just being bitchy, they're most likely a great business
Thats pretty decent really, expected double
The exchange rate was decent then
After the war is over, because of the inflation, I would not be surpised if it will be double((
Ye tough times
But even so, after that game, I've decided that I will RP as one of two charaters - Freedom or Mutant
Never will forget the "dungeon" laboratory where I cosplayed Sleeping bloodsuckers basement from COP😁
I've modified this moment and started sleepwalking around the lab and by that scaring the sh..t out the "guests"🤣
Never really looked through them. Those feel mostly very edgy?
Any politically questionable stuff im unaware of?
Theres a similar thing happening in HOC, that level was pretty scary
Now think about experiencing it yourself. not through the monitor😎
Why does the IPSF drip go so hard
I kinda wanna do some of their kit sometime, just not sure what uniform pattern I'd use
It looks like a reshade of Swedish M90. Is there any of those around?
oh no no no, wz.93 is cursed camo
in poland we kinda despise ppl who are wearing stuff in it, attach a patch, old MC-1 gas mask and call themselfs stalkers
No I dont see why not
The shape doesnt fit, but the colours pretty close. Since the IPSF camo is made up and the IPSF is an international force, I dont see why you couldnt use wz.93, a camo not directly associated with any other faction. Its probably the one id recommend atm
Just make sure you end up looking like IPSF, not Polish military with a new patch
Military in the trilogy used Dubok and I would say that it's yellow version (Yellow Dubok) is close to the IPSF one
it’s like… sharper dubok
yeah, I also see that the edges are sharper
But in IRL costumes, such minor details may be overlooked
i would still use dubok if i was doing ipsf yeah
because dubok looks better then that swedish m90 sharp ahhh dubokaflage
For example, if you check out Freedom's suits in the trilogy, you will see that they use camo patern that does not exist, and all cosplayers and RP players decided to use Flacktarn as a substitute most close to the models
Yeah, and it is easy to obtain
Dubok is too close to Freedom, some of their suits used Dubok
Nope
When we made our costumes, we double checked a bunch of models
Two most useful camo patern for Freedom are Flecktarn and russian Partisan
As military used Dubok in the trilogy, it could not be used for Freedom
Thats not Flecktarn and neither Partizan/SS leto
Yeah, this is the one I said does not exist, that is why Flecktarn was chosen
Dubok is not used to not to mistake Freedom with military
Its pretty close to Dubok. Closer than most of the military models, the shade of their camo is too off.
Though at least one common one uses a camo, thats pretty obviously also dubok, but scaled smaller
ISPF wouldnt be well represented by Dubok, as youd end up looking either like Freedom, or early 2000s Ukrainian army.
Dubok can be used for both of those factions, with different styling. But IPSF wouldnt be recognizable as such there imo
As I said, IPSF's does not look like classic Dubok, but like Yellow Dubok
Judging by the pics Ive added
Tbf this camo also shares similarities with wz.93, so its also not a great solution
Even if you're Duty
Niiiice
The red stripes are a bit of, but even so, not bad at all👍
Issue is the amount of black in that imo. Shade isnt really right
@smoky scaffold this isn't really a project I'm supposed to do. After the new year I'll be doing exo skeleton.
On another note, I quite like the character design in HOC. The equipment feels much more real and useful, while also being faithful to the trilogy
Yeah, I know how you feel abot exo
We have a bunch of them in Ukraine RP community
But with the HOC and GSC artbook, there so much more details acailable now to do auch costumes
Good luck with Exo project👍
Know what you mean
Im currently going through the Zone in Guardian😁
With such more details, thinking of remodeling my RP suit after the war
Good luck with the exo, sounds like a pain in in the ass to do all the joints
Yes it is
We thought about making exo for Freedom team
Calculated (with trilogy models) - 500$ of materials + sh..t ton of time and work
But now, with new models and 3d printing tech, it might be easier and maybe a bit cheaper
it is not dubok
reminds me of a darker french woodland
BTW, duty are all former military and have formal military looks.
You would be more fitting to be in Freedom😏
Cheers!
Wow, so it was like that...😎
Early holiday gift from my roomie! Enjoying it with a glass of Tarkhun
Early Christmas gift from my older brother!
The Freedom exoskeletons use dubok but other than that they don't really use it
They glaze the SADF and have origins as 4chan dwellers
It actually can be/used to be a really good source for obscure surplus but lately they’ve been selling less surplus and getting more hypebeast-y/doing overpriced reproductions of stuff (like the smersh they did with Arktis, or their gorka)
I will say their Stalker-themed patches are pretty solid though
Oh yeah thats fair. Not a great look
Nvm Dubok has 3 shades and this has 4. I wouldnt know what else would come close to this though.
Flecktarn has 5 shades, its full name is 5-colour-Flecktarn.
Damn, you should visit our village at next pyrkon
Merry Christmas, stalkers!
Multicam belt beats out of the picture, plain olive would do better
I also use such belt with Guardian of Freedom when sh..t hits the fan, but in olive👍
Oh i know the Multicam was for my tarkov stuff an a full belt setup runs me around the 300-400 USD
im going to buy a green belt at some point just need to find a good belt
I also use what i can for it
I struck a goldmine stalkers 
got some stalker 2 stuff 
Guess the zone gave me my present for Christmas 
400 dabloons? As long as you dont buy the luxury kind of mag pouch, im not sure how youd reach that number
Tasmanian Tiger belt itself will run you <80$
safariland holster and mounting system, Leg strap , and the multiple mag pouches i got off esstac belt i got i think i paid lil overpriced (including tax an shipping)
i was gonna go for a ronin tactical or a aglite magnetic belt for my next go around
Ai 💔
They're fine, they started more than 10 years ago, basically guys that frequented /k/ - weapons on 4chan, thus the name kommandostore and phrases like innawoods and such
They used to stock tons of flecktarn for dirt cheap
Nowadays Americana Pipedream has expanded heavily and took over most of the niche surplus business, also increasing prices
Ward spy detected in freedom. He’s got standard ward handcuffs(which he will never use) fed detected 
AI slop detected
Surge is a freedomer he could be using those cuffs for.. other things
Merry Krimbus
Also the Monolithian is supposed to give Anya a thumbs up but lighting goof on my end
I have seen this rig a lot for stalker cosplays. What is it?
I don't remember, I got it about a year ago. I think it said lancer tactical on the website, but idk🤷
@silver valley found it
https://www.evike.com/products/58540/
yeah, i guessed this is one of those china-made rigs that every company rebrands. Seems to be a real good pick for us stalker lovers,
i will infact
smite u
I’d like to see you try I got electric artifacts equipped

Decided on a freedomer LARP method due to being relatively easy to pull off:
Have an airsoft AK-74N for a stalker weapon (wish I could legally get my hands on a deactivated real AK)
The jacket and the backpack is dug up from parents' forest shed (stalker style cool factor)
Use an authentic ~2010s russian military issue 6Sh104 for cool factor due to being real gear
Hold all the correct 8 spare mags in those mag pouches
Have two 500 millilitre triton bottles on both sides' universal pouches for balance and water carrying ability
Backpack used to store cold weather layers to wear under the outside
Rusty bolts in the jacket pocket: one is from an abandoned schoolhouse and the other from an old factory area
Mechanix Wear M-Pact gloves (looking for replacement, don't like them much)
Left out the GP-5 mask because I sweat too much to wear it indoors (don't like it either)
Mask is a placeholder... haven't figured that part out yet
Nonetheless quite happy to LARP as this asbestos-lunged random cannon fodder typa guy!
def a Huge W on the smersh rig , W freedomer Kit
U can always go for half-mask/respirator if full gas masks are too much
If i could only find something that looks good and doesnt suffocate me
M3 6000 series or newer
Like this one
With little work it can look good, especially with Starion's 3D printed filters (I didn't have time to paint them and use for now)
i fw the camo
Fw?
i "fuqk with"
new age american slang
server also punishes u if u type in swear words
(even tho its a M rated game)
Ahh, so u like it?
yes i like it alot
It is, youll find many a company sell it
I've got more photos here. Sadly, my next suit won't ne using it, cuz it went out of stock ;_;
Next will be in kinda similar pattern, but more green/grey/dim
@hollow furnace
noice
Anyone got an idea for good Stalker gloves? I currently have half finger wool gloves, but they always get stuck on the mag pouch velcro.
They”ll allow dudes getting ripped apart limb from limb by anomalies but don’t you dare think swearing is allowed
doodle of a noontider mesmerised by nature
you see the new death anims for anoms their pyscho
SKD Pig gloves arnt bulky an fit well
could never go wrong with Leather fingerless
do the no armour stuff u see skiff do
Full version when
(it looks really good)
thanks a lot! :) I'll probs give it some colour in the coming days!
Small criticque, I'd probably make the suppressor just a little longer
Will try to fix it! I have a very loose artstyle so proportions tend to be kinda off.
Oh yeah fair, it looked bite sized lol
added more drip to the ultimate edition backpack with some velcro strips
Thought about those, but I doubt theyll fit for mine. Those pig gloves dont look too bad, think I wanna try that direction without them looking too tacticool
they are super comfy and breathable an keep ur hands safe
and low profile
Okay that has got to be the most epic setup I've seen yet
Is that some sort of an induced illusion or smthg?
I love this so much
I can recommend Mechanix Wear M-Pact gloves (if you train and explore in real life, gets more value out of them) but I would buy new ones, since old/used ones will feel weird (my experience). Also looks very western.
I am looking for a specific pair of gloves that fit the stalker world better but I havent found them yet.
Those do end up looking a bit too tacticool for the Stalker look imo
thats the world im suffering in yeah
@spark loom these are what I see everywhere but cant find them. Look better
Where you from? Im from the eu and I got one I dont want anymore
EU
Estonia to be more spec
ping me when you want a reply from me so i dont have to check constantly
I used it like 3 times and will gladly put it in the wash before sending it. Would do like 10€ + whatever shipping with tracking Germany -> Estonia is. Can send pictures in about a week, at home for Christmas atm.
Otherwise mil tec does them and others too. Just gotta search for chest rigs and theyll pop up.
Pouches are velcro also.
Middle 3 pouches are double stack and pretty wide. Fit anything from AK to G3. Side pouches are pretty big and you can put a bunch in there.
On mine I have sown a small velcro tag for patches on the admin pouch, but I could easily remove that
oh i was talking about gloves
Nvm just checked prices, lets say 7.5€. If youre interested ofcourse.
They also exist in other colours
Oh lol nvm sorry
Quick search tells me its related to these "assault gloves" by this airsoft rebrand company
yeah i did find a lotta rebrands, just trying to find what is the original
Im not terribly good at following you it seems…
I was looking for a bit but didnt find any original model. Youll find a lot of gloves like it when you search "hardknuckle gloves". Those searches will include some more high quality brands too
I will not give up
Found the awnser, the originals are some discontinued Oakley gloves
Oh I found those too, good to know those are the originals. They also appear as the default gloves for the CT side in csgo and cs2
nice
pardon the ping, but what brand are your gloves?
Glove Station
Acid meadow
Drew an exo suit since i really like the look of stalker’s exosuits. This guy im calling hornet because i decided to make his eye pieces an insectoid look
SKS is underused for Stalker stuff, really fits quite well imo
Never understood why it wasn’t in the original trilogy
Cheap, soviet rifle? Sounds ripe for the zone
It was a very shortlived service rifle, kinda like the M14 so it probably makes sense you'd see a bunch floating around in the zone
it should be a like, loner/bandit weapon. itd make sense too. take granpa's sks and head into zone
It did stay for a bit longer with less important units, but those werent very geographically close to Chornobyl AFAIK.
Then again why do we have L85s, M4 variants and G36s floating around there. Id expect more SKS being brought in than L85s or G36s
@cerulean musk @proper rune Christmas paused the work, but here’s the final sketch before coloring!
Damn this actually looking fire, might have to set the finished one as my profile pic lol 
No airsoft replica to buy (there is one coming tho, should release next year or so (also an AN-94, DP-27 and some other uniques) so you bet your ass im getting one)
Reason: Posted an invite
Who is making an SKS? GBB?
Supposedly AEG
Forget the brand it was an early prototype at an expo a month or two ago
Shits. Want a neat GBB to replace my AEG AK-74M. Now that I got into gbb stuff im not going back
Any other info on the AN-94? Was kinda hoping VFC would go down the ak-type rifle route now (yes im aware that the AN-94 shares basically nothing with an AK, just got the same feels)
Not really. Like I said, early prototypes, not even painted. No guarantees any of them will make it to market.
I did just remember the brand was S&T
Hmm only AEG then, welp
Well VFC has a 74M but its basically unobtainable for a couple months cuz its sold out
Its complete unobtanium here in Germany. Everything >0.5 joules isnt allowed to be full auto, so you gotta have some place converting the things.
Currently a single website is doing so, but they also charge ~750€ (dont even think theyre doing crazy markups, its just expensive like that)
Also did just get a VFC G3 so I need to sit down for a second with all that crazy expensive purchasing.
Will probably buy it sometime in the coming year though. Unless a GBB VAL comes rolling around
A VAL would be such an authentic and heavily requested gun for GBB, no clue why no company bothered yet
next batch should be around January iirc, they're great though highly recommend getting one
this came in the mail today
Ebic
Oh of course I want to buy one, even with the first batch' flaws, it is a very good replica
From what I hear its the best VFC has done and a hell lot better than GHK
Truly so!
i want this
@proper rune Your dude in the trio is almost done. The artist said maybe another day or so for the piece to be completed.
Before coloring I thought the guy in the left would be Duty and Freedomer in his right (where the duty is)
🤷♂️
It's just a fun piece for a couple friends. It's not meant to make any statements about armor or factions. The artist is working off reference photos I gave him of NPCs I've met in Stalker 2.
If anyone is curious, the artist's name is Saltedtoast63, and he can be googled. I don't want to link any of his pages here in fear of being blocked for promotion by the bot.
holy hell man who did you hire? I might have to hire them myself cuz i am definitely impressed with how its looking
is this the cool guy trio you can find in the cordon?
chad freedomer
L dutier
smelly bandit?
Nah, it's just @proper rune, me, and @cerulean musk. Or at least how I imagine we would look if our Stalkers were in a squad together. It's just for fun.
Wait dude are u in the UK? I literally have photos just like that

Drew stalkers in manga style
Stalkers. I’ve completed a request for a client in the bar and received my payment. It was a old military crate with what they said important documents. I wish to ask for a second opinion it the payment was decent. Or if I need to talk to the greedy merchant again.
I received a decent bag,a odd statue, a classified book with documents and a artifact in a container. Looks to be gravity but changes over time. What’s your opinion on it.
flaws are minimal, mine performs like a dream
i wanted this edition so bad but $700 CAD 😩
The goodies are cool, the price is steep.
I guess it really depends on if that money is worth that to you. I couldnt afford that for a single game, but theres definitely some cool things in there
Hi stupid
The artifact lamp is probably one of the coolest things I've gotten in a collectors edition
I know.
Yay but at the same time it was well spent as if you ever wanted this second hand over 1000 easily for anywhere else. Also you get all future dlc for free.
That lamp quality is way better than I would have ever expected it to
MySpace ahhh selfie
didnt tarkov say that and then still dont give the dlc?
Yeah its not a bad deal imo. However its also not cheap by any means
They did end up doing so after long community backlash. Were very reluctant to do so though

The back pack was much higher quality than I expected too
what backpack is that?
The one that came in the ultimate edition
oh ok

Any opinions on hardshell vs "softshell" (made from fabric) holsters for achieving the stalker look?
I need to get a new one to fit on my leg and im torn. Hardshell is nicer due to being easier to reach and less risk of breaking.
Softshell feels more authentic for stalker kits though
As long as you don't have a pistol with a horribly light trigger or dangerous thing to shoot on its own fromhard knocks, you are fine with a softshell
these holsters hold more varied pistols, so having a model that doesnt fit is rarely a case, just keep the colour thematically correct
I did hear those are quite fragile and tend to get your stuff lost?
Sounds like somebody didnt regulate the straps correctly. It will hold your gun good enough, just a speed draw is more difficult. One more option is to buy both and hide the hardshell in the soft cover
He's gonna drink and drive in darkscape
Lol funny idea. Think im gonna go with a softshell one then
I have chosen a Garmin eTrex Vista H from 2009 as my stand-in of a PDA!

It's done! I requested it in png format so it could be tossed over any game screenshot for personal preference. From left to right, it's @proper rune's stalker representing Freedom, my stalker representing Duty, and @cerulean musk representing the Bandits of course! Budmo, brothers!
yoooooo
I take it you approve? 😄
Can't wait to see what @cerulean musk has to say.
definitely 
even the year is the release of CoP!
Ain't they a little too bright? Like washed out
boosted contrast, darkened and shifted the hue a bit. Just had the same thoughts as Stalvar over here
You mean the black point. If the blacks look too bright, its likely the black point. Contrast is another option
Yeah, depends on which option was used by the op
Damn, new SEVAs are so bdsmesqe due to that straps for luggage support
Wouldnt you like to know lonerboy.
What do you expect freedom to do? Not BDSMize the SEVA?
Seriously though, I kinda like the new SEVA and stuff. They look nice
Yeah, the new suits looks are great as hell. I'm going for new PSZ-5 for my next cosplay suit
But tbh, I can't fathom how the heck the hard covers for joint's sit in their places
My GPS device lost satellite connection and wouldn't pick up any other satellites, there was no cell tower reception for my phone to get a pin on my location. Got back home by using the sun as a compass
Afterwards did some combat training against steel
what the hell is that
I'm sorry I think you are stuck in a space anomaly
Hey thanks! I’m no artist, and the guy did me solid making this piece for practically nothing. I wasn’t going to criticize at all. I tossed the updated png over the image, here it is. I mean no matter how you cut it though, it’s still an animated piece being laid over a screenshot hehe. It’s just for fun, not meant to be in an art gallery or anything.
Updated my server pfp too 🙂
Demonic
Its a fun hobby, make them for folk as their pfp's etc .. And no, I don't charge for them either, my motto .. "No fee's, no favours, all free" ... I am a disabled 72 yrs old, so get bored without gaming and graphics ..
Then nickname checks out xD, ngl it's good to see old ppl with good sense of humor
Yea, name raises a chuckle or two, lol ... My grand children love it and tell all their friends, lol
ya got any site or profile with other arts?
Only on my clan discord, I run a Destiny discord for older gamers .. "GOLDEN OLDIES" , otherwise no, I don't present or display my graphics, besides, got several thousand examples, lol
If anyone here fancies a new custom avatar/pfp, DM me, see what I can do, self taught amateur, so don't get picky, lol
hmm, tempting, are You good with Stalker-esqe avatars/doing portraits?
No idea until I try, lol
my current avatar was a schetch done by 16 yo girl who is friend of my gf, apart from that I was always using certain characters or Doom Guy face lol
If you have an image/photo you would like adapted, happy to run with it, go to DM to continue though ..
Haha the artist came back with his own edits! They look way better than mine. @proper rune @cerulean musk
i must hire this person immediately lol
Their name is SaltedToast63, you can find them easy by google. I can DM you a link or their discord handle if you want. I don’t want to do that in this server and get hit for promoting a link
lmao i'll look into it later when i get some more money
obviously, there are a lot of airsofters in this channel (including me)
Used the guys own photo image to create this
Yes ❤️
Looks like my own creation image was inappropriate for some reason, its been removed, would have been polite to say why from whoever did the removal ...
That ends any future pfp creations on this server, shame, saddens me ..

the pfp stuff?
removed bc of offtop, channel is meant for stalker stuff
Maybe english offtop would be a suitable channel?
It's because this channel is more for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. stuff, go to offtopic channels, might be safer there.
yes
Ok, fair enough, thank you for responding .. Btw, this channel is in the category "EN_OFFTOP", so assumed I was in the right place, suggest, if it is for "Stalker stuff" only, the channel should be relocated appropriately. Also, the "category-rules" channel make no mention of "Stalker stuff only" for this channel or the category ....
Working on my freedom kit, I just got some pants so I’m making progress, patches are on the way too
G&G or Specna arms?
Idk the exact brand, I got the gun at my local cabelas
Ah I see, kit looks great so far :)
my flecktarn stuff I odered finally came in yesterday, so I'm probably gonna take some pics of my gear so far before I sew my chestplate
Hell yea
I like the ALICE (or the German Lochkoppel?)
Alice is a good stand-in if you cant get your hands on russian equipment
I dont even think its an unauthentic choice for freedom

New post - including a list of events i will visit 2025!

Pirvit stalkers!
This year my projects led to through four different countries in Europe! We visited beautiful czech republic several times, not only for @stalker2_thegame but also to visit @warhorsestudios ! We gave workshops at @luxcon and @rpvgermany and saw @percivalwhl live at @pyrkon ! The community event from @cdprojektred_dach was a blas...
Perfect gaming mouse pad, covers entire desk. Notes for taking notes, writing game cheats and planning. Single bottle under desk to balance the room vibe. Flammable detergents for self defense.
But you've left the box from the mouse on the table just to show off, should be stored under the desk next to already placed box.
This is an perfect gaming setup for playing stalker Witcher and other games made in eastern Europe
Like np cyberpunk 2077 or dying light? Or others games like S.T.A.L.K.E.R Series?
Anybody here in a time zone in 2025 yet?
Poland up in 2025
How’s the future?
Happy new years
Happy New year!!!!! My final miniature project in 2024 is Stalker!
Exactly
Happy new year everyone @hollow condor
Thanks for the great wallpaper
Uuu na artifact gues im a bit overdosed
Other way around
no I’ve seen those in the game
Its a promotion for the collab. Would really like to try it as well
I cant believe they made the AK from stalker 2 real
Anyone know what the western/American equivalent of nonstop is? Is it more like redbull, monster, etc
Can confirm it tastes like Red Bull
Ordered 6 from Ukraine. Wish they were available in the states
OPA THE NECTAR OF THE GODS!
We found someone to ship them in bulk for our stalker LARP next month but it’s expensive
That’s what I figured
Is this LARP US-based and taking new people, by chance? 👀
Yes to both
Is there a website or someone I can dm for more info or anything?
That sounds like a lot of fun
now im jealous
Sunken house
we have ONE store in my country, in the capital city but for some reason you can't order it
yes I know I am an awesome artist
Delete it or mods will to it, cuz it's not stalker related art
I see in your roles that you are not a mod, if your mad about others ppls posts, take it to the mods yourself instead of threatening
This is fire btw, I bid my old AK and a half bottle of vodka for it
Damn, chill, I just said it as neutral as I could. Just few days ago something like this was deleted and moved to #💬┃en_offtop soooo
There is no reason to threaten some stranger through the internet lol
Also, read with understanding, "or mods will to it", I wouldn't be writing that way as a mod 
Why you fighting? If mods will delete it anyway, let him get his warning blast.
You know, You are right raises a glass I will drink to that
oh boring
i am not a fan of that type of flavor
Only criticism I would have is the muzzle flash is too small and the muzzle flash isn’t illuminating anything
Just like in stalker 2 
This is fire, but why he got a duty chestplate over a freedom suit while actually being a loner???
Never the less, a cutie patootey
Thats out of my control a little as i set it up in a game
Ah
Might have to play around with some editor, but the assets are in a mod for an RTS game i play
kitbashing is the true loner way, using the gear best suited for your own individual needs. duty chest plate for better ballistic protection, freedom suit for better radiation protection and camouflage
An emission has occured near my house 
If your house was destroyed, collect any glowing rocks from your living room and meet me in the parking lot. I'll be the guy in the giant Army truck with a huge coffee thermos on legs that can recharge that rock and pay for a new house. Don't ask questions, just hop in. Also bring your favorite pistol and almost nothing else.
Duty plates are better for slashing wounds
Intended for mutants
going by stalker 2 stats, where its reduced to just "physical" damage
Oh, in the original games slashing and bullets were different if I remember correctly
the out-of-lore explaination would be that flecktarn is my favorite camo, and black/red is one of my favorite color schemes... in lore, maybe he just put better ballistic plates into the duty vest or something
Either way, it looks great. So great in fact I refrained from adding a shower emoji

i love the xcom games god i wish this was a thing
Not even finished yet I can tell it's gonna be peak
unfortunately xcom gameplay is more like Clear sky's gangs wars, not standart stalker experience
I made custom Lego minifigures of Clear Sky!
(I also made two loners because you can meet them in game as CS npcs in swamps)
How does one make custom figures? The stickers I can imagine, but for example the rig for Lebedev looks custom
There’s a bunch of companies out there that make their own molds for custom accessories and stuff
Like i said, peak
I called them custom because I picked up different pieces for the minifigures, and also because these exact minifigures aren’t sold anywhere, which makes them custom.
Ward... yuck.
If clear sky was still around there would be no ward...
(Wait will we get spark?)
I want this

I forgot I'm on the internet

It's the government trying to strip your rights away!!!!!!
they don't want people entering the zone so they shadowban!!!
hello sdalgers i wanted to share my stalker art 🫡
ngl some female stalker wouldn't be so bad. Having some female eggheads or seva suit enjoyers might actually add to the atmosphere
would also fit in the ward tbh because its not this "i go into the zone because I am an aimless man that wants to make money" if you are a scientist from the mainland or part of a military group as a female then it would make sense to appear in the zone
Airsoft?
I’ve been really tempted to get an Airsoft machine gun of some sort as… home decor…
Probably an mg34 or 42, m60, or 240
No durable, good versions of the 34, 42 or 240 exist. The A&K M60 has a problem of barrel torture when you put it on its bipod. Just warning you, all of those models are bloody expensive and most need work out of the box as well
If you are willing to put out 400-600+ bucks for one, yeah a wall hanger would not need work. Could find a used/broken one?
Do not get the AGM version of MG43 it has terrible durability issues
Reason why I don't own any airsoft guns. Blew thousands on real ones, couldn't warrant airsofts lol.
I like to say that if a stalker was a woman you wouldn't know.
No like seriously if we ignore the brutal death 5minutes after entering the zone she will turn into a man. 💀
Well, my AK-74N electric replica has worked through rain and mud. It's just that a lot of the airsoft market has those issues, just to be cheap and affordable to teenagers.
Oh I'm sure it's neat, it's just that after buying expensive real guns, I couldn't force myself to buy airsofts. Especially considering how close in price they can be to real ones.
I really wanna get a real 5.45 AK, deactivated or working condition. Can't really show it off, go to LARP events since EU kills most gun rights. My country has a bit more freedom at gun rights, but still can't own a good military style gun
Makes sense. I own a couple of 5.56 ARs & a couple handguns myself. 9mm & a .40
GTA4 loading screen, let's go!
I hear the VFC GBB M249 is pretty good externals and internals wise. Not exactly on your list, but its one of the few good lmgs

Nah, my buddies have their class 3
Tehe cheeki go brrt brrt
A bandit with an MG42 is NOT something I wanna see in the zone
this will certainly change the situation at the Cordon
Look out Loners we got that Brrt brrt
8mm Mauser is all but unheard of in the present Zone, and decent quantities of .308 are also pretty hard to come by
I'd give a bandit equipped with that a lower chance of survival than one with an AK or M14
It's the intimidation factor that matters shhhh
Realistically youll have to bring your own ammo tbf. Only that much stuff you can scavange
me and friends
Big boss
From what I understand 8mm mauser is still one of the most popular calibers for hunting in all of Europe. Realistically it’d be a lot more common than stuff like 5.56 or .308/7.62nato in the Zone
MG42 would be right at home in the Zone
drawing bulat armor Military/ISPF wip
Can somewhat anecdotally confirm, my grandpa used to hunt with 7mm (not 8mm) Mauser. Its definitely still pretty popular
if I recall the Military in OG used bulat armor
and the freedom does so and Duty too
I mean it’s literally a piece I commissioned for me and two friends, but I mean if you like it, that’s great!
Drawing i did a looooooong time ago
Lebedev's face there would be such a good reaction image loll
ur beautiful art has been used for stalker RP servers for a good while
yeah i draw that meme with broken filter to pissed off my friend who love detailed gasmask lol

For a long second, I thought that animal on the right edge was a person's head and hairline, like they were peeking horizontally into the shot with a giant head.
hide them fuqqing grippers

I NEED to mix white monster and stalker 2 Non-stop

Made the 3d version a while back
redraw again the bulat armor wip
bro this is friggen awesome, Sick as hell job! 
Nice stuff my clear sky comrade, where'd you get that jacket?
It was custom made on my request by a Ukrainian workshop from Soviet experimental camouflage fabric (I am not joking)
of course it's custom 
what kind of belt is that?
would be cool if STALKER 2 re-added back the Clear sky armor also nice cosplay
I really like that cut-Clear sky armor that look like a heavy armor
(Not by me but it's so peak, art by @/chikidyaff on twt)
Thanks bud, yeah really hoping they add it back into the game.
The Ultimate Edition DLC "Ultra-Light Merc Suit" seems to be inspired by Clear Sky.
A blue/white camo with an olive vest.
If I remember this suit was worn by mercs in Shadow of Chernobyl
Oh!
I think the mercs that attack rookie village can be found wearing it
you cant wear it in soc unfortunately
STALKER BULAT Armor
Here's the original Iconic Gate artwork in full 5000px resolution, converted from the original .tif file created by GSC.
The original .tif file was in CMKY color format. When converted to RGB, it takes on a slight greenish tint that's nonetheless very popular with many fans, so here's that one too.

Don't judge too harshly, this is my first chevron, yes, there is no outline yet, but I will do it later
That's awesome man. The same guy made a couple of my gorkas.
Evil surge: I hate freedom and love clear sky

I've made a task for Sakharov to do some scans around Yantar, he gave me this artefact, is it good?
I hope it will be worth it for Sido

not really a fanart, but a themed magma scribble i guess.. translates to "i've been here once, when had my first withdrawal.. can't recall how got up here.. i must stop doing them. (Duga, reference to one of the cutscenes)
interesting! i am only now noticing all the oh so very obvious brushstrokes now. Makes me feel better about my own artwork 😄 Anyway thanks for sharing!
Depends on how high it bounces.
It bounces
You found this camo textile to buy or you made it custom? Its hard to find a camo like Clear Sky
He said it was custom "custom made on my request by a Ukrainian workshop from Soviet experimental camouflage fabric"
Tks! Indeed very well done!
Something that i done in souce engine
That’s incredible!
duddeeee friggen awesome, the mono models look absolute breathtaking alongside the X7 suit
I can DM you the instagram/twitter of the guy who made it if you'd like. I don't think I'm allowed to post socials like that in the channel
just a rookie
same here please
i dont see spaghetti bowl, so everything went smoothly?
It arrived
pog
Hey how they ripped those models since there is no tools exists besies fmodel??
Because I'm fellow 3D artist who uses Daz 3D
What did it cost anyways? Sounds very expensive
Freedom Girl ✌🏻
Thats awesome, where did you get it and what other patches are there?
Etsy, saw patches for all the og factions there. I hope they start making some for the new ones, would love a Noontide patch.
Finally found it!!!
Thats awesome
Correct. I posted an IG link once and it got removed. You have to be on the approved influencers list like Starion to do that.
Thanks for confirming. I dmed the guy that asked 👍
Yeah, it's unfortunate too. Ever since they jacked up the Instagram algorithm a lot of STALKER cosplayers like me have gone from several hundred likes per post to about 4-8. And since we can't share our links here without already being popular, we're pretty well screwed on engagement.
wip
CLEARZKYYYYYYYYYAAQAAAAQQHDID!!!!!!!!
im drawing Clear sky armor heavy armor with STALKER 2 style i hope so

Which belt and carrier are you running there?
clear peak

Would a workshop upload count as "creative things"https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3404924505
hot
That's awesome man
Btw, feel free to use my last pics as references if you want to draw some more Clear Sky guys
👍
I just noticed your the guy who uploaded the models to gmod 
If I had a nickel for every gmod poster who's models I've ported show up in this discord I'd have two nickels which isn't a lot but it's weird it happened twice
🤟
Making some stalker inspired figures, what do you think guys?
This one available for everyone with 3d printer on Maker world, enjoy!
https://makerworld.com/en/models/969786#profileId-941114
Game related figure inspired by Stalker 2 game suit - “SEVA”. Was printed in PETG with tree supports and 15% infill, and took about 5.5hours on P1S. For all stalkers on this site, I hope you can print it and paint it even better than I did, it was my first painting process, if I'm honest, so share your results in the comments!Let me know if you ...
Nice! u need to learn more about painting minis but still good job
yo that would be perfect for stalker style chess pieces
Wow. Now it's my goal
I got them! (hercules,psy-block and vinca)
working on something I imagine to be early Noontide years...
(Imagine playing chess against a blind man. and he wins.)
Lmao

Striders flight jacket went hard

Absolutely incedible

Hey there fellow Stalkers. I'm wanting to share some stuff cosplay wise just not quite sure how to share video or a link without getting in trouble. I'm working on a short for my OC Kilo called The American. Still waiting on some gear before my kit is complete.
Okay
It's finally time to draw the Messenger of the Monolith.
Irl names and where to buy?

If you're going to post a video or photos of your cosplay, go ahead
links are allowed, if it's not your channel
If it's your channel, you gotta get the content maker role first

These are dietary supplement effervescent tablets from rossmann (these are they backs)
Thank you for the info
Thank you for the clarification on that.
More to come and clearer photos of my setup to come. Wanted the video to add to that dark and alone feeling the game gives at night.

Dude you did good definitely the same sort of energy. I think the quality is great. I do amateur acting so I'm use to speaking on camera.

(Its enchanted with Power V Unbreaking III and Mending)
It's definitely been cold. I just tried to work with the snow.
I filmed this clip before it all came in. Still waiting on a few new items in the mail to change up my gear.
nice work and in amazing discord 360p quality
Legend of Zelda?
What?
Thanks. I honestly miss my GoPro I use to get such amazing quality on it, and that wide angle lens was awesome for action shots.
it looks like some piece of armor from the game Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Even cooler then though
There is a mono vest under a cloak both you can see in game, but i did tweak them a little. Then i added archery gear on top: breast guard and an arm guard. The reason there are bandages on the left hand and the sleeve is torn is because if you have loose sleeves they can get caught in the bowstring when you fire.
But im happy you like it lol i just had no idea where did the legend of zelda come from
Come to think of it. Why the hell did i put a breast guard over a damm vest. 
nice work lad
You made me see something that makes no sense lmao
Just made this for a member here .. @Михаил ᛉ
This is really fire tbh. I like the style
