Hi all
I am currently building a 1/350 scale Bismarck and was wondering if anyone had any tips for making blast bags for the 38 cm main turrets and the 15 cm secondary turrets.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Use aluminium foil as a backing, and fill in with white glue (applied with a pin usually, and letting set up as you go) until you you have the desired shape. Then paint black and dry brush for weathering. Make sure that they look as much alike as possible.
I use tissue paper soaked in a water/white glue mixture…

Jeff,
I hadn’t thought of that. I’ll have to remember that. What ratio of mixture? 50/50?
i use elmers white glue & shape it into blast bags around each barrel then paint the required color
