im not sure if this is the right category for what i want, so sorry if it isn't, but any way,

i want to make a ghillie suit for my dragon 1:35th US sniper squad, i was wondering what materials to use.

cheers,
Smithy

hi , the answer is very thin strips of wedding veil in varoius lengths and dye them rather than paint with food colouring , you have better control over the colour, glue with wood glue when dry , cheers ian

Smithy,

Sorry, can't help as I've never done one, but I would like to see how yours turns out.

ok trahe, i doubt it will be good because im a 13 year old kid with not alot of patients, but ill post up the pics and send you a private msg when they're up

cheers,
smithy

there was one done some time ago........... i found the thread... but the pics are gone.......... i'd lookinto the stuff used for Fly Tying.............

The foil wrapping in a cigarette pack has some texture to it ,so cut into strips ,painted dry-brushed & applied gives a nice result but I´ve only ever done it to helmets.By the way keep the strips narrow & be patient ...very patient ,you might get a good result.

Hi Smithy, you could try sticking things on it like this in the pic. Check it out! I am sure you will like this effect very much!
