Whoppsies, made it a bit short on all sides so it'll be a generic tarp. A new one is poured and should hopefully be ready by tomorrow evening.  Eventual pigments should knock the shiniest back. |

Success... of a sort. Just bedding it into place for now and will comeback to tidy it up once it's secure.   going to adjust the colours to something more canvas like on both sides. |

Paul why don't you use tissue?
It looks good and I like the idea, but it does seem a little risky in the making.

Top cover all but sorted and a pigment slurry added for additional wear ( still wet in the picture)  I've also attempted some rope on the mooring posts courtesy of Mrs H's Cross stitch box, not so evident here but I'll sort out to pics later. |

Never would have thought of mixing PVA and Acryllic paint to create a tarp.. looks great!
