My experience with this bandage material is that it doesn't soak up the wash very well. so I use an old trick: let it soak in a strong brew of tea for about 8 to 24 hours. Depending on howlong you let it soak it will give you a tan to dark brown colour. After drying you can always paint it in whatever camo colour you like.
Nice Tutorial and also good advices for the use. Also a good example that patience and creativity can save money that can than be spend on other stuff.
Man...they won't see those assault cannons pop out at them now. I've always wanted to learn how to make those camo-nets. Mine all failed miserably. Superb tutorial. Cut down just a tad on the music, it was just loud enough to almost compete with your voice. Also, possibly doing a voice over might help with making your voice clearer with music. I do like, however, that you can address problems on the fly doing the non voice over videos.
Why is this better than airbrushing gauze? I'm curious because that's what I have done for years. Now I started laser cutting aluminum foil for netting.
Use the material part of actual bandages, no need to remove any plaster or coating and they are really absorbent so colour easily. If you dont have any spare, you can pick them up at the local £1 shop.
Nr. 1--you don't have to explain every little detail, just do the work and people will figure out what your doing, such as dabbing the paint bush on the netting. Nr. 2--those drums are monotonous and annoying as hell! I could barely understand what you were saying with that drumming almost drowning you out! Aaaarrrggghhh! Overall, not bad. I like the technique of placing the wet net over the object to be camo'ed and letting it dry. Then the net will drape and take on the proper shape rather than stick out at weird, unsupported angles from the surface.
hey after watching your video I went to wallgreens to try and find some gauze to use and stoped at homedepot for some stuff and at the halloween section lolz I found something called "halloween fabric" and it seems to be about the same pattern to the one you get when stretching the gauze i think it save time do to the fact that is stretch in my opinion I think is a great alternative
A scale one or real one? I'm a retired Designated marksman and graduate of the clandestine surveillance class. I teach how to make a real suit. For scale you would use thin threads. I have done 1/35 and 1/16 using sewing thread. It's better and faster.
Too shaky and drums annoying! See other ppl have commented on this and you have said it was one of your first.appreciate your time in sharing your knowledge but maybe try another and take this down . It’s at the top of the list when you search making tank camo nets. Hopefully there will be another tutorial similar. Thanks again for trying 😕
drums in background are a little much.

Nice Video But Bro... You need a Tri Pod ....Bad !!!! At least a table top minipod. Keep Up the Good Work, Thanks Mate
Awesome guide, I've been watching a lot of your vids recently and will put this to good use when I paint up my DKoK tanks.
Thanks for the guide, I used it on some FW artillery and it worked well!
@redgreen09 new editing program matey still getting use to it, It sound okay my end, But I'll tone down the music, cheers ; )
Its crazy you actually get these bandages in all different camo colours now online lol
Thanks for the pointers! If people want to complain about the video, they should make their own damn video!
Nice Tutorial and also good advices for the use. Also a good example that patience and creativity can save money that can than be spend on other stuff.

I appreciate the info. Thanks!
Great stuff, gonna make some for my FoW-minis.
This worked wonders for my challenger II

Can anyone tell me what this type of bandage is? I'm US based and all the flexible bandages I can find aren't as "rough" if that makes sense

+Jose Torres would hot glue hurt my models
+Garrett Gman I personally have not used hotglue on my models so I can't give you a definitive answer but I don't see how it would hurt it.
Awesome find!
Hot glue will rip the paint off your models if you're not happy with the end result
+TemplarsCrusade01 ok is Krazy glue a better solution then using a hot glue gun and i paint after i build my models or should i paint first
Great idea! Thanks for sharing.
is the stuff you soak it in coloured? and could i jsut paint it without soaking?
lol for the glue did you say.. its the safe kind.. the sort you can eat ?! rofl.. niiiiiiiiiiice
@Yitick Was trying out some new editing software, so getting use to it, weill make sure the sound sorted next time lol ; )
@asmodeus3 My pleasure ; )
@Makkeru glad it helped ; )
@Arbornoctua cheers matey :)
Indian dance effects?
is me or i just dont like it butt be eazer to undaer stand the info fith out the music thats just me i think
why do you need to soak it in PVA?
would this work using cheese cloth?
@Valbarca yeah the safe kind of childrens white glue lol
Looks too white still. Should have soaked it longer.
What's with that music man
Can't watch this video. Too much movement and annoying background drums.
Unfortunately I could do nothing about the shaky cam back then.
would this work for a ghillie suit?

sorry as much as id like to watch your video have to thumbs down, those drumbs override your voice way too much. am half deaf here..
Sir, what's with the music.?
Removing the Din would make this video far better. I gave up watching your video after 2.12sec.
The music is annoying … sorry
How Not to record a demonstration.....jesus
