nice method! I use old gauze bandages to create camouflage nets. knot in strands and soak in diluted acrylic paint. When they are dry, pull the threads apart a little and cut off the straight ends to make them look old, then follow almost the same steps as with the paper.. moisten with water and white glue, place, shape, let dry

Thank you. I am in the process of studying and learning this technique.
The triangle is actually quite good for a German zeltbahn.

This is a good technique. I've been watching different videos about building models. I'll give this a try.

THXs for this amazing tutorial! Instead of paper, I would use some old fabric remnants...

[@archerymad15]

I tried the tip from LPJ channels for the tarps it's that VMS paper shopper and a post it note! You'd think it would be to thick eh bit turns out fantastic and so realistic! I've tried everything from PVA and tissue but this VMS stuff just waw!

Good tutorial for cheap tarps, wipes can be used as well just be sure no design or writing is visible.. hair nets from deli/ meat departments can be used for artillery camo nets, plane and an OP tent area. Pull to loosen so not too tight, water down glue solution same use for folds..

Im going to try this on my garden diorama thanks.

Thank you.......... great idea

Thanks mate really appreciate you watching the video.

My experience is to soak the paper in water only no Pva necessary imho. Therefore It won’t stick. Packaging paper s a bit thicker it ‚ll give good results too.

[@carlosbc2117]

I Add the Paint in the same mix of water & Glue and let dry or cure the paper or tissue defect on the model

[@scottgallagher5344]

Have you tried to use the end of a paint brush instead of tweezers to manipulate the wet paper? Thinking it might not tear so easily.

[@whiskypops]

Was that a bug crawling at the end?

[@RedViking2020]

White glue? Is that wood or pva glue please

[@mbak7801]

I have used 0.3mm self adhesive lead sheeting. It crumples and creases very realistically and is much easier to apply.
