I love it! I've considered building the equivalent cover for an m3 grant after seeing a photo of it. Your work here is fantastic!

Looks really good! That tarp/canvas has super realistic look and texture. What material and technique did you use to make it?

@Marc. Thanks for the info! That's really interesting... I actually use the same technique, but with few differences: instead of tissue, I use thin silk paper type sheets you get wrapped around the cardboard packaged in dress shirts - it's thin, yet stiffer than tissue, and wrinkles really nicely! I then create a similar mixture of water and PVA glue, but the difference is, I eliminate the need to paint the canvas afterwards by adding a carefully mixed color created by scratching powder from appropriate colors of watercolor pucks (naturally one could use commercial pigment powders, but watercolor pucks are cheaper! 😉 - it often works really well. - But I still have to say your tarp does look better!

@Traveller. In hindsight it would have been useful to add color to the PVA mixture. Thanks for the tip!
@Pietro. Thanks.
