The "Mesh" / Airbrush Template Exchange

[Dr. Cranky]

A few years ago a bunch of us over in the diorama world began to exchange dirt. You hear right, DIRT, as in finely sifted soil to be use in our diorama turfing . . ..

And I just thought it'd be a cool idea to start a similar exchange among those of us interested in finding new mesh materials we can use as templates for airbrushing our models.

It doesn't have to be anything larger than a 3" x 5" card sized piece, which will include whatever you have found and are willing to share in the exchange.

For example: any type of mesh material, fishnet, produce packaging, doily (paper or otherwise) screen material, fabric . . .anything that can be sprayed through with the airbrush.

Is anyone interested. My doing this is simply to grow my collection (yours too) without having to spend a fortune.

And also, I think it'd be a lot of fun.

Then again, I might just be totally INSANE!

Cheers, Doctor Cranky

I have used bridal tulle to achieve a subtle diamond pattern.

A big roll was like $4 at Hobby Lobby.

Cranky, I think that's a great idea, but no way I'm parting with my fishnets

Rick, that is funny. That cracked me up!
