There is a wide variety of camo patterns you can wear in MGS3. Each one affects your "camo index" - a percentage displayed in the upper-right portion of your screen that determines how difficult it is for the enemy to spot you. It's common sense to wear camo that blends in with the environment.

===Snow===
===Snow===
Take the right branch in the cave before fighting The Pain and keep going through the crawl spaces. Good in Rokovoj Bereg. This is the best camo for fighting The Boss, because she cannot see you unless she is nearby.

===Animal===
===Animal===
Obtained from Ocelot. Fur print pattern. Your gun will always stay perfectly steady when aiming in FPV.
*'''Obtained from''': Ocelot.
*'''Effect''': Fur print pattern. Your gun will always stay perfectly steady when aiming in FPS view. Does not work well with the SVD or Mosin Nagant. Works wonders (95%) in the mountains.


===Hornet Stripe===
===Hornet Stripe===
Obtained from The Pain. Leeches, bats, and spiders will not attack. Hornets will not affect you, and attack nearby enemies when you approach them. You can acquire it by walking along the right wall from the exit.
*'''Obtained from''': The Pain. You can acquire it by lowering the pain's stamina bar to 0. There will be a walkway near where you exit. Walk up the ledge and jump off of it. Land on the platform that The Pain was standing on and there will be a box. Grab it and now you have the hornet stripe.
*'''Effect''': Leeches, bats, and spiders will not attack. Hornets will not affect you, and will attack nearby enemies when you approach them.


===Spider===
===Spider===
Obtained from The Fear. Camo Index will never drop below 75%, but only when you have stamina left...and wearing it drains stamina '''fast'''.
*'''Obtained from''' The Fear.
*'''Effect''': Camo Index stays at 80% (75% when walking), but only when you have stamina left. Wearing Spider drains stamina ''extremely'' fast.


===Moss===
===Moss===
Obtained from The End, by holding him up and threatening his head with your gun three times. When combined with Woodland and used in grass, your camo index skyrockets. Also, standing in the sun restores health and stamina.
*'''Obtained from''': The End, by holding him up and threatening his head with your gun while his stamina gauge is low (approximately 1/4 of full stamina).
*'''Effect''': When combined with Woodland and used in grass, your camo index skyrockets. Also, standing in the sun restores health and stamina. Used best in the area where you fight The End.

===Scientist===
===Scientist===
This is a Russian scientist uniform from the Graniny Gorki weapons lab. Use this to get around Graniny Gorki without alarming the guards (though the scientists will still run for alarm panels if you get too close to them). Press {{psx|T}} while wearing this to adjust your glasses in true Otacon fashion.

===Uniform===
===Uniform===
This is the uniform that you steal from Raikov in Groznyj Grad. Wear this in combination with the Mask (under facepaint) to disguise yourself as Raikov and walk around Groznyj Grad without being spotted. Press {{psx|T}} while wearing this to salute (which the guards will respond to by saluting back). It has no effect during your return to Groznyj Grad (after the torture).

This paint works best in conjunction with the Leaf or Flecktarn outfits.
This paint works best in conjunction with the Leaf or Flecktarn outfits. With the Moss Camo you will have 100% in the camo index while in The End's area.

===Zombie===
===Zombie===
After defeating the Ocelot squad in Rassvet, look behind the barrels to the left of the exit for this facepaint. Not too useful for actual gameplay, but combine with the Spirit camo and you have yourself a pretty convincing zombie.
After defeating the Ocelot squad in Rassvet, look behind the barrels to the left of the exit for this facepaint. Usually provides the same benefits as Black face paint, and it looks cooler.


===Desert===
===Desert===
Found in the Krasnogorje mountains; very effective there and in other brown/tan areas.
Found on the first floor of Ponizovje Warehouse near the sealed doors.

===Snow===
===Snow===
Under a plank in a trench on the west side of Bolshaya Past Base. Good for the final battle in Rokovoj Bereg, but fails miserably elsewhere.

===Water===
===Water===
After fighting The Fear, return to the entrance of Ponizovje South. It should be in the water (unsurprisingly). It's good if you need to swim past enemies.

You can also find it on the roof of the building at Bolshaya Past Base.


===Mask===
===Mask===
Inexplicably, you start the game with this mask (and it's also shown in the introduction cutscene, if you selected "I like MGS2!" when starting the game). The mask looks a lot like Raiden from MGS2, although it was designed after a Russian commander - Major Ivan Raidenovich Raikov. Wear this with Raikov's uniform to disguise yourself as him. It also looks better with the scientist disguise, because there's no bandana.
You start the game with this mask (and it's also shown in the introduction cutscene, if you selected "I like MGS2!" when starting the game). According to Signt it was designed for a mission to impersonate a Russian officer, when it didn't go through he didn't want to throw it away, so he put it your backpack. The mask looks a lot like Raiden from MGS2, although it was designed after a Russian commander - Major Ivan Raidenovich Raikov. Wear this with Raikov's uniform to disguise yourself as him. It also looks better with the scientist disguise, because there's no bandana. Wear the Mask during the boss fight against Volgin and he will hesitate in attacking you. You can get a few shots in before he notices that you are not Raikov, but will attack more frequently than before. The trick only works once during the fight.

Show your American pride as you empty your American-made M63 into your foes, who saw you right away because you're wearing the most terrible camouflage in the game.

===Cardboard Boxes===
===Cardboard Boxes===
Like every other Metal Gear game before it, the cardboard boxes make a complete return. You can use them to blend in with storage areas, or climb into trucks and convince the guards to drive you around Groznyj Grad (providing that the shipping address on them is correct). Just don't park yourself in the way of a patrol, or the guards will kick your box right off.

When equipped, your camo index skyrockets to 100% and stays there unless you touch an enemy or pick up a body. In Alert Phase or during boss battles, your camo index stays at 95%. There are two ways to get this camo; shoot all 64 green frogs hidden through out the game or complete the game with no alerts at all.
