I recently saw a great article here on netting. It involved gauze with surgical tape overlay. My question would be how wide would the tape strips be to keep to 1/35 scale. I'm shooting for WW2 German type netting. Thanks in advance.

All the replicas I could get measurements from run about 3"-4" wide. That scales down pretty small - about 2-3mm. When you scale down, I would opt for the smaller size. Visually the 2mm size will look more appealing to the eye.
