A blue-grey sheet would make them look neat indeed.

I visited a store that specialized in upholstery refinishing for furniture. They had bolts of very wide remainders ther for low prices. I got a nice, slightly shiney blue & it works fine.

Those are some good-looking ships, KTravlos! I was going to say that the other option would be visiting a professional studio photographer and ask where they got the blue background they use… The photographers I know have a great 'cloudy blue' that they use for some photos.

Interesting! Thanks for the suggestions!

I bought a blue plastic tarp from a dollar store for 'away games.' For home games, i use a piece of masonite painted midnight blue and covered with acrylic floor 'wax.'
