I've had a look but I'm struggling to find 28mm scale corrugated sheets. I've seen the corrugated roller but it's for 135th scale which is oversized for what I'm after. I've seen cardboard used but I'm not completely sold on it as a method. So if anyone can point me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance

Try this link to 1/48 scale metal corrugated sheets: link Looks like you get three 3" x 8" sheets for 6.99 Plastruct also makes them in plastic. |

I've been very happy with the "crimper" tool I bought some years ago. Mine was made by Fiskars, but there are a lot of options on Amazon. link |

I just use the coffee cup cuffs that Starbucks and Peet's and other places provide to keep the hot coffee from burning your hand through the cup. Something like this:
Spray paint works well, especially light coats of gray, silver, and chrome. Then to make rust spots, you can go all Jackson Pollack and flick wet rust brown paint on them. |

Thanks guys it's much appreciated, I always seem to find either 172nd or 135th scale so thanks you all for the comments.
