HGW Positive Rivets. Not correct, layout and size wise despite being ‘sized’ for this specific kit. And definitely not done in 2 hours.

With some extremely light surface sanding, the rivets stand out better. But there is risk of sanding paint off of anything sticking out

This looks interesting. Is this some kind of "rivet mask" or applicator?

It's the HGW rivet set. Wet transfers which leave rivets. I am comparing ways to make rivets.

HGW positive rivets set for this specific kit.. definitely not correct on many places. Also the size of the side decals leaves a lot to be desired. Missing lines for which the extra lines are not meant in my opinion. Lines which don't line up between upper and lower decals. I am hoping these will show up subtly after the paint..

Let's see how it'll look after the paint.
And thanks for explaining. 👍

I was going to look into getting some Fw190 HGW rivets but seeing how you have had problems with them. I might now reconsider.

I would suggest to try at least one yourself..

The FW set may be different.
So far I like the idea, but it is a lot of work and it really needs some ever so light sanding of i our paintwork with the risks involved.

Thank you Gary! I haven't done much mottling to now, especially not this small.
