Real camouflage netting over very large things will be made up of a few nets, because there is a limit to how big a net can be made and how much netting a man can handle, so using the bandages to represent more than one net thrown over a pile is fine. The really massive pile of crates covered in one massive net would require a net bigger than anyone could lift. Of course, in a sci-fi world, they might have drone copters to drop huge ultra-light netting onto such things.

And they're also tied down to not blow away. Sure, all those draped folds are aesthetic, but it'd blow away in any inclement weather that it's supposed to protect against. Netting is usually used for lifting cargo and moving it, tarpons are used for cover

Regretfully I must contradict your point if you're referring to the camo netting displayed at 9:55, which is the largets one I noticed in the video. I was on exercise in the British Army only a couple weeks ago handling a camo net far larger than that. When rolled the weight could be handled easily by four individuals, and at a pinch just two though it would be very difficult due to its bulk. Here is a link to the camo net in question, it should be noted that it is significantly less 'dense' in appearance close up. This is perfectly normal and from a distance it is less noticeable. It's probably worth pointing out that anything under the camo net would be picked up by a drone in moments due to the heat signature. i.imgur.com/rpLCOSH.jpg Love you content Lindybeige :)

@@thecultofcrafting Working together is a form of cheating! A job that can be done by two men is less of a problem than one requiring a platoon. Other limitations are the room required around a thing in storage for the people picking it up, and whether the thing can bear its own weight. Also, six nets can be used on six small things or one big thing, so are more versatile. Anyway, my main point was simply that I think someone with just the bandage is fine.

Love the snipers. I've given some thought into the ways excess bits can be stretched to more models, to save money on kits. Having extra arms and heads peeking out from under netting, while the "body" is just a frame of sprue the bits are glued to, sounds like a neat idea.

A good "loose" cloth type is dryer cloth (color trapping sheets? Whatever its called in english. The stuff you add to a dryer so it won't stain clothing). Its loose-ish woven, irregular in size of the holes and you can stain it with about anything. If you stain them before you glue them you seal the stained color in, with the pva. Instead of babywipes, i would also recommend buying cheap, non embossed paper towels or napkins. Many of the cheap ones ain't embossed and you can pick them apart to get some of the layers off, making them smaller. Then water down PVA and spritz it on with a spritzer bottle (or an atomizer). Unlike Baby wipes the paper cloth will soak the glue up, become wet and thus fall "naturally", much more so than the Babywipes will be, which contain oils and all sort of stuff, that can make painting difficult later on.

Going to try and make these tonight! Any thoughts on which option was best? Like baby wipes only/baby wipes plus cheese cloth/cheese cloth only?

Cool! I like having a variety. That being said, if I could only pick one, I'd go with the cheese cloth. The spray might soften it a bit, but I wouldn't worry about it. BUT unless you're using a foam safe spray, the solvents in the spray will melt the foam.

Really nice video! I had thought about using gauze for some netting at 15mm scale but it's a bit too loose, but I think the cheesecloth might work a bit better!

Ah, yes, I hadn't' thought about smaller scales. You should know that cheesecloth comes in different grades then (the number of threads per inch), which have bigger and smaller holes in the net, so I'm guessing you should be able to find something that fits your purpose. 👍

That cheese cloth camo net looks amazing. Have you tried/do you think there is a way you could make them multi colour/camo pattern instead of just OD green? Or I guess they could just be painted like that after they get glued on or w/e. I was thinking that after the first dip, maybe hang it up and do a run by with an airbrush or something.......but yea might just be easier to paint by hand after the fact. Either way, awesome job man.

@thecultofcrafting

Thanks! :-) Yeah, I think what you're saying is doable. Another way would be to just straight up paint it with an airbrush before doing anything else. I'm guessing the paint is thin and flexible enough. After the paint has dried then dip it in glue and apply it. You could also do something similar with washes or watery paints. You could probably also dip the cloth in a paint/PVA mix, lay it out flat and then dap your secondary paint on there. Then, while everything's still wet, drape it over the thing you want to cover.

This is pretty cool, I wonder if this could be sized up to 1/18 scale. Going to have to try it later.
