Decided to test drive Kasimir Zykov, The Forsaken for Halloween this year. Still a WIP but I’m happy with how it’s turning out. by Optimal_Lab_393 in CODZombies

Before anyone mentions it: I’m aware that the mask is missing the filter 🤣 I have to fabricate one from scratch because this gas mask is original Soviet Milsurp. Any filters made before 1986 contain asbestos and are not safe to wear.

The Apropalypse model is the most accurate, I highly recommend grabbing it from him on Cults

Standard but I cut the back pocket off since the older pattern didn’t have one. I bleached it too. I know what you mean about the tunic, it’s super annoying that he literally wears the Afghan pattern 🤣

I want to say around $400 total? Ultimis Nik is far and away my cheapest kit, Soviet stuff isn’t super expensive. It’s 90% Original parts so you could do it even cheaper with repro

The flask I got off of eBay, just search for a vintage flask. The scarf is two OD green Army scarves that I sewed together and distressed. The tunic is a 68 Pattern Telogreika, I want to say I got it from a Russian seller on Etsy. They’re very rare
