Camo netting and tarp/blanket questions

Let's see here:

1) You soak the netting in the 50/50 water/white glue mixture, then ring it out to remove the excess, then place it in the form that you want it (i.e. if it's to be draped on top of a turret) go ahead and draped it on the turret. Don't worry about the excss dripping on your model, it is very easy to remove.

2) Not sure what you mean be thicker line things but if you mean tie downs I use thin twine that you can find in any hardware store.

3) The tarp is made exactly the same way as the netting, just be careful to not rip the tissue when you are forming it. If it is blanket over top of a figure, just draped it in place while it is still wet, it will dry into form.

Hope this helps

What do you use to remove it?

sometimees just painting the tarp and netting in the colors u want can harden them, although this then means that if u try to drape them over ur model, they'll leave that color on it. then again, that may help in figurin out where u had planned to place stuff on it later....

It will just wipe off or peel off.

great. Thanks guys.

Thanks for the tip, Derek.

For years I have used gauze that I stretched to spread out some. Soak like you discussed......then sprinkle dried parsley over the wet surface and drape over your project. Cover your project in seran wrap if you don't want to mess with glue cleanup.

When its all dry, remove and paint. Looks great!

Great Ideas!
