Hi all,iam not sure if this tip has been posted before .I did a Napoleonic figure quit a few years ago and i wanted to give him a wound to his leg, i not sure what you call it in the states but i used some plumbers PFT tape i think thats the name used for putting around plumbing fittings to stop leaks.
I found it really works well and you can use it on pretty well all scales it paints up reall good and if you put a slight blood wash at different stages as you wrap it around it gives i think a real ggod bandaged wound effect, also you can tie it off, if you split it during the wraping process,works well on hands and heads as it is so flexable also on bigger scale tou can add material as you wrap to surgest a more modern type of shell dressing.
Cheers tango20 Chris
