I have tried many things to simulate camouflage netting for 1/72 scale armor — door-screening, multilayered onion sacks, etc. Nothing really quite did it for me. One night while finishing an Elefant, it hit me ... pantyhose! Thanks to my wife for donating a pair. They appear to be the right scale and are easily workable in mounting, look taut without stressing the kit, and can easily be painted. I used rod styrene to make mounting pegs for easy display. This is a winner for me.
