It's sold in sheets....if you have a art store nearby they should have some...otherwise EBAY has a bunch of sellers Tops about 2.00 US for a roll of sheets...that should last a long long time ;)

Might just do these with a brush actually ;)

Did the pre-shading part, with a normal brush and then airbrushed the rest. Trying to decide if I should rust up the grills a bit, or just give them a good wash of some brown and black...

Its quite amazing really... Have had that mesh laying around in my bits box, since I was 13 and was playing 40K. I think my plan was to make some fences out of it, but never got around to it. Now (16 years later)it finally had a use :D

Did I mention, I NEVER throw anything away, if I think it might be usefull for something one day??? :P
