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
That's a good point. You could certainly use multiple nets. :-) Back in my army days we used some quite large camo nets. We had this secret trick: working together. ;-)
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 :)
@@CheffBryan You could sew the netting to the model pallet. It occurred to me as I was watching to glue lots of bits of cat-litter around the bottom edges to represent rocks weighing it down.
@@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.
I click in, casually expect to be mildly intrigued. Not suddenly flung into a hobbying frenzy at 2230 in the evening on a weeknight! Bloody good stuff. Will definitely try this... and whatever else is on this channel.
Yoooo! So cool! I hadn't thought of using baby wipes! You also have the benefit of not having to deal with any patterns on paper towels, sometimes they put flowers or something
Yeah, baby wipes do the trick. I tried to make tarpauling with tissues, but really that just doesnt work. Baby wipes on the other hand is just perfect.
For an extra camo effect i sometimes sprinkle leaf flocking like NOCH's leaves foliage over the wet gluey, painted netting. Works especially well with smaller nets like over sniper rifles and such.
Very cool, old school ways. I grew up before 3D printers took over the world. I have used lots of gauge for net and have rolled many tarps out of tissue. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, and you're very welcome. I like 3D printers, but building terrain is enjoyable in itself for me, so printing everything would kinda defeat the purpose. :-)
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.
Thanks! The snipers are one of my favorite projects. :-) I used air drying clay for the snipers' bodies. Just a rough shape. A ball on top of a slightly larger ball. Two sausages for arms. Stick the "gun" in the clay. Cover with net. Been thinking about making some new ones using leftover weapons from my Adeptus Mechanicus. :-)

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.
I forgot how fun this kind of terrain was. I did a IG table with that same technique. I may have to do a new project now. I could use a 3x3 warehouse skirmish board.
One of the things I really enjoy about making this kind of terrain is that you can get great results with fairly low effort. It's very satisfying. I kinda wanna build a warehouse board too. :-D
@@thecultofcrafting my coffee stirrers, cheese cloth, and a billion other scrap materials are on the way to start making some of the other stuff. Absolutely wild!
Nice work, I like your approach of trying different techniques and sharing your results. I achieved a similar effect by first dyeing a paper towel in the color I wanted (in my case, black), then, after drying, soaking it in watered down mod podge. I think the thickness of the paper towel combined with the slight bumpy texture made for a nice result. I'll try cheesecloth next time!
Looks great u can also xut a sponge and easily make digital camo on it before u drape it ... Then and a wash of darker paint and lighter on the highlights
I see that you just recently started uploading to youtube. Great work so far. I look forward to your future videos mate :) P.S. I'm plannning to build a great fortress monastery in the future so I bet your videos will be really helpful for me :)
Thank you very much! :-) That sounds like a great project. I believe the channels Knarb Makes and Eric's Hobby Workshop have done something similar, so perhaps you can find some inspiration there too. :-)
You could also use some used anti discoloration rags that goes into the washing machine using the same method. It upcycles things that are supposed to end up in the trash, and it's virtually free considering their original purpose woul've been fulfilled already.
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.
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.
Great idea, but I use wound square dressings as they come in a few sizes here in Australia, I have used greenstuff from Army Painter if you can get it, just make it up and keep it wet, mound it to the tarp size and place it over the object, wait till it drys and then paint it. About large nets/camo nets we carried on Military trucks we also carried large poles with forks on the ends so two Soldiers could camo up a truck in twenty minutes and you did so in a way so from the air the truck looks like a mound or a small bunch of wildlife of hedges. I make my tarps up with different colours like camo, but it's up to your own needs, I just became one of your new members, I'm in my late 50s and have been modeling since I was 8yrs old and I can remember my first kits were the 1/76 scale Airfix kits which I own still. But I model Games Workshop 40K Imperial Guard Catachans I have over 6 thousand troops and sundress as I'm a Disabled Veteran who lives out of a wheelchair nowadays, Cheers from DownUnder Bob.

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? Or is part of the idea to have some variation in textures and colours. So you think painting them with a spray can will soften the pva glue? Tempted to just paint them after.
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.
@@thecultofcrafting To me, it has the effect of showing techniques that maybe didn't work perfectly for this application, but since you showed how it worked, we can see how it might work elsewhere.
The same way the shape of the barrel was made, if you use thicker cardboard and use smaller sections, you can easily make your own detailed barrels without a printer.
Pegasus hobbies run a line called Military Museum Collection...it's basically camo nets, brick wall sections & battlefield debris...the nets are huge when opened out fully.
@@thecultofcrafting excellent, I hope you get what you're looking for, I've got a bag of unopened rubble lying around the flat, I'll look them out later & send you the company name too....I'm sure they're mainland UK as well...,😁👍... hopefully you'll showcase your new projects with stuff I've been able to help you track down...😁👍
I use toilet paper or Kleenex. I dip it in deluded Elmer's glue. Laid on whatever I'm covering wait for it to dry. Then paint, when it dries it looks real. Never had a problem with it.
@@thecultofcrafting I never thought about different brands. When I first started building models we didn't have dryer sheets and all that stuff. I'm 63 years old. I've been a State Fair model judge for 17 years. If you go to the aerospace museum in Oklahoma , I've built a lot of models for that museum. I built a big model tribute of the space shuttle Challenger. I am a fine scale model builder. I love this hobby. Hope everyone has a nice day!!
Typically after, because a lot of the materials used (especially cheap craft paints) have an unrealistic sheen - that I'll want the matt varnish to dull down.

Great tutorial! Thank you for making it
Glad it was helpful! 😊
Brilliant work dude! 🤘🤘
Thanks, man! :-)
Fantastic! I loved it
The same way the shape of the barrel was made, if you use thicker cardboard and use smaller sections, you can easily make your own detailed barrels without a printer.
Yeah, I've seen some people making great barrels from scratch. But I've never quite managed to make good looking barrels myself. 😁
Ty sir great job and very helpful
Pegasus hobbies run a line called Military Museum Collection...it's basically camo nets, brick wall sections & battlefield debris...the nets are huge when opened out fully.
Cool. Thanks for the tip! :-)
@@thecultofcrafting my mistake mate...nets are only 8 by 13 inches but still big enough to cover the pallets you made...👍🏻
@@johnroy2567 Yeah, 8x13 will easily work. :-)
@@thecultofcrafting excellent, I hope you get what you're looking for, I've got a bag of unopened rubble lying around the flat, I'll look them out later & send you the company name too....I'm sure they're mainland UK as well...,😁👍... hopefully you'll showcase your new projects with stuff I've been able to help you track down...😁👍
I use toilet paper or Kleenex. I dip it in deluded Elmer's glue. Laid on whatever I'm covering wait for it to dry. Then paint, when it dries it looks real. Never had a problem with it.
Oh, really? When I use toilet paper, it immediately starts to fall apart when it gets wet. I wonder if there's a big difference between brands. 🤔
@@thecultofcrafting I never thought about different brands. When I first started building models we didn't have dryer sheets and all that stuff. I'm 63 years old. I've been a State Fair model judge for 17 years. If you go to the aerospace museum in Oklahoma , I've built a lot of models for that museum. I built a big model tribute of the space shuttle Challenger. I am a fine scale model builder. I love this hobby. Hope everyone has a nice day!!
@@unknownuser2737 That sounds cool. 🙂
Take a look at dryer sheets
Where do you get your xps foam from?
One of the Architegn.dk physical shops, typically. The foam foam I bought second-hand.
Superfin video, rigtig spændende!
Takker! :-)
Big Respect fra Tyskland
Would you recommend Matt Varnishing before or after applying netting?
Typically after, because a lot of the materials used (especially cheap craft paints) have an unrealistic sheen - that I'll want the matt varnish to dull down.
Brilliant!
What about using ladies stockings/tights, after they have been stretched and colour stained ? And you can get different denier,
I have no idea. :-) Try it out.
@@thecultofcrafting I only came across your vids by chance yesterday (16/7/22), when one found its way into my YT feed, brilliant vids, although I am not a war gamer of any kind, I do enjoy model making on a 00 scale to fit model railways, and I can scale down your designs to fit, many thanks for providing ideas to keep an old man busy for the remaining years. Already made an 00 scale pallet this morning
@@tonyford4170 That's great to hear. :-)
