                        Hi Chris,
                        I got several yards of cheese cloth for $.50 a yard at Wal-Mart. You can cut it to size, rough it up and paint it however you choose.
                        Regards,
                        Joe

                        Cheese cloth does work great Chris, that's what I used on my Leopard 2. If you did'nt see it when I posted the pics of it it's on my site.

                        I used ( at some laughing and harrasing from my wife ) parsley to simulate leaves tangled in it. Sprinkled some around it while the paint was still sticky and worked great.

                        A gauze would also be good.

                        Chris - cheese cloth works great .... spray paint it before applying it and use the 50/50 water - white glue method to stick it down. Dry bursh to highlight the edges.

                        Maffen - most hair nets that I've seen are for the restaraunt industry and are a little too thick in the strands to be effective.

                        HEY,
                        These are some great tips. I have been thinking of the same thing for awhile, but kept forgetting to ask. Thanks for all the help.

                        i got one q in case there is no parsley available ?

                        someone told me to use cut tissue paper , but it sound a bit tough to cut it to tiny pieces

                        is it ok ?

                        Parsley isn't your only food source for this though.
                        Tea leaves, oregano, and some other spices also work.
