Why are you shouting? CAPS off please Tarps are very simple -
Take tissue paper and cut and fold to the appropriate size , apply a water /white glue mix to the paper - wetting it well- model it situ and let it dry and paint. I have often added paint to the water glue mix to speed up the process.

I've always have had good luck using heavy kitchen foil. I etch the foil with a mild household acid (vinegar or Limeaway) so it will accept paint better.

Another method is using those heavy duty reusable disposable kitchen towels. Dip them into a white glue water mixture, squeeze out the access and lay over the subject to shape to the contour. Let dry, then paint and weather them. You can roll them up while wet to form rolled tarps, or just fold them. Once dry and painted they are ready to add to your project.

Sory about the upper case but obviously i aint as computer literate as yourself and did not know that i was shouting .. thanks for the advice i will have a go
many thanks
