PS – I am sure the work is better than my spelling… "Converstion", good grief.

'Love it', you gotta share with us how you do that camo netting, it cant be just rolled bandaging gauze soaked in white glue and left to dry im guessing.

Avamango,
You're close,

I just cut to length and pour on what color I want in the center. Then I roll it up.
I use super glue to tack it into place still wet. I come back and paint camo striping later when it is dry.

I like it a bit messy as the tactile nature of the netting give it a bit of realism to me I could never achieve with just paint alone. So I like to see some loose ends. Nice and worn that way.

But you could always take and make tight rolls and add straps to hold it together to make it more clean.
