thinking on how to make the vent grills and it just hit me. aquarium nets are the tiniest nets i could get in my house. and then print a few and cover with a piece of card.

also first time mixing a bottle to get that non standard brown in my set. 1/4 deep green, deep yellow, flash red and flat black. after this is all done. i might need to weather this down
