A fella pointed out to me that I put the wrong MREs in the back of the Gamma Goat as well as had a British water can...doh! I knew the MREs didn't look quite right from what I could recall and the water can...who knew? Anyway, had the right water can in my parts box and I made the correct cartons on the computer and printed out on a close enough craft paper. The plastic bands are tape painted light grey.
All is now well in the modeling world.
