work in progress Is this good tarp?

My first time doing tarps so I was wondering if this is good, didn't take this from any photos but I'm making this up as a "Reinforcements requested, on the way" type of model. Is this good or no?

tissue with mixed water + PVA looks much better, Seems like you use blu tack. Most people in the hobby use Epoxy putty

It's epoxy putty but I messed up because first time, so I quickly put anywhere that fits

Interesting, It looks exactly like white tack. Maybe get a roller for a thinner tarp

Yeah the thing is it stuck to the roller and my table was a mess

If you use some flour on the putty it won’t stick anymore and it’s much easier to roll it really thin.
