I took some pictures last night but haven't had time to upload them to our easy to use Modeler's Alliance Photo Gallery... 
But I have a question. The tissue seems to be getting weak, at first the white glue gave it some strength and it was holding up well. As I have added some layers of filters and pigments to it, it seems to be effecting the whiteglue and it's behaving more like tissue now.
What can I put on the tissue to make it rigid again without effecting the plastic under it?

I'll try it. Thanks.

So you used white glue to strengthen the tarp and now using acylics to weather ?
Id use enamel as a basecoat or acylic and then put a varnish over the top to protect and then you can weather to your hearts content without fear of breaking down the strength

I use 500 and 1200 but rarely feel a need to use 1000, I think 1000 would be perfect for this! Again, thanks James, this should work fine.

Then a little dot filter
Think I will do something light around the folds of the flaps and the tiedowns to bring them out..
Thoughts??

Nice one Pups
The tarp really looks the part
My only thing to say would be the top of the tarp would be a lot lighter due to bleaching effects of the sun
