Experimenting

In order to work out the details of the attachments of the fabric at the base of the tunnel and the openings, I carried out some test trials with very thin tights (15 den) stretched over a frame. A whole which can work as an entrance is made very easily by puncturing the fabric and encouraging it to stretch. It can be sprayed lightly with varnish to freeze it in place and stop the whole from enlarging further.

The fabric can be attached to the base by stretching parts of it down and securing.

For model purposes, this can all be sprayed with a grey primer to cover the skin coloured tights.
