This is not fishnet stockings. Don't be fooled into thinking that. Its replica fishing net used for display. As soon as i get some i will post the details everywhere i can think of where people might be interested. Keith.

I think the highly secret netting thats used is the replica fish netting that comes with display ornament seashells and starfish. Keith.

Very nice Job. In a lot of these custom predators, i see people asking what netting was used, but never getting an answer. Do you mind sharing what neeting you used? I think some people are keeping it secret which seems very silly to me. Keith.

Does anybody know what netting is used here or is it being kept secret? Keith.

Thanks very much, glad you all like it. It was a lot of work, but I'm 100% happy how he turned out. I will be starting work making a dust proof glass box for it this weekend. Thanks, Keith.
