Yes, the net is home made. I start with a piece of brass wire of the desired length and basically wrap it in Cleenex tissue. One tissue is easily split into four sheets so I apply as many as needed. Each layer is soaked with diluted PVA glue. I then use tea leafs to sprinkle the net for texture. First layer is of a very fine Earl Grey tea. When dry I give it a coat of "spray can glue" and sprinkle some herbal tea leafs in a more modest pattern to not over do the texture. Then the net has to dry for several days due to the long drying time of the glue. Then I add a base coat of paint and super glue it to the vehicle. When dry the brass wire makes it easy to form the net to the vehicle. Add some straps and finished. It is a bit of a messy process but it is really easy to make.
The bergens are a mix of Real Model, Legend and Verlinden. They are all from my spare part box.

Many thanks, Erik - I'll give that method a try, and check out those suppliers.
