Archer Fine Transfers 996 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 (edited) This is the day I've been looking forward to since the day I started on this project in March, 2019. Our full rivet replacement kits for the SBD are finally bagged and ready to ship to LSP members exclusively at a $25 savings. The retail on this is $195.95 but your price is $170 plus shipping. The link to buy is HERE. You can see a full SBD-5 build using this kit HERE.

Pete Fleischmann 4,421 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Outstanding Woody! this is such a great idea- I’m 200% blown away by how good your rivets are- they have been a joy to use on my Pavehawk project, and I look forward to using them again. Super easy to apply, incredibly rugged, but most of all realistic- Yours are simply the best; and I’ve tried the others- no comparison! cheers Pete Archer Fine Transfers 1 Link to post Share on other sites

ade rowlands 1,777 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Are the sets you offer for the Revell 1/32 190 made of the same stuff? Impressed with the SBD might place an order if they are made from the same stuff. Have watched the how to video. Link to post Share on other sites

Both are on the same thin film, but unlike the SBD rivets the FW rivets are not raised. Essentially they apply in the exact same way. dutik 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I’m really impressed with the SBD ones. Link to post Share on other sites

If you paint is smooth and you don't finish with a dead flat clear they just add a subtle texture that breaks up the monotony between the panel lines, if that makes any sense. If you go that route apply them under the final color, not the bare plastic. Lacquer paints are highly recommended. Link to post Share on other sites

I will very likely give them a try when the time comes to get one of the 190's out of the stash. I use MRP paints pretty much exclusively so no worries there.
