geedubelyer Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 The all metal skin of your model really accentuates the beautiful lines of the Spitfire Kent. No cammo to disrupt the silhouette. Super job on the skinning. kkarlsen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkarlsen Posted April 10 Author Share Posted April 10 Preview of the finished 'Silver Spitfire' build... It's actually very difficult to photograph the model because of the many reflections, so I've tried photographing it inside a display cabinet Cheers: Kent patricksparks, MikeMaben, Martinnfb and 16 others 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, I am very pleased with effect. I think it's the best approach using foil. I wanted to give the surface some texture and the foil certainly helps, if you don't want to go full 'oil canning'.

kkarlsen Posted April 10 Author Share Posted April 10 And I know, since the journey around the world, there has been some changes to the 'Silver Spitfire'. The Auxiliary Fuel Tank has been removed, the Antenna/Gps has been replaced with the original Antenna. I don't know why but the rudder has also been replaced?

Ginja Ninja Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 Kent, that's fantastic, the foil looks amazing! A couple of questions, what type of adhesive foil did you use and did you paint the anti glare over the foil? Jeremy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
