                        I use the foil lining from inside my wifes cigarette packets(the only redeaming point from an otherwise filthy habit!!).It's almost spot on for pattern.

                        Take tin foil and put it on something that has the pattern to match your scale (the old kit part or window screen or mesh) and rub a pencil eraser over the top of it to emboss it.

                        Check out quilted paper towels. Once painted and glued in place, they look pretty close.

                        Modelers, has anyone devised a way to reproduce soundproofing used in helicopters? In my case, it's the Huey in 1/24. I'd be nice if there was a very thin fabric out there that had a pattern like that, but I'm probably dreaming.

                        Anyone tried reproducing that?
