This Viper is my first attempt in the field of polishing. The only aim of buying this kit was to get some practice in polishing, I am not really into US cars actually..😅. I did not spent much energy on this kit (see windshields..), which in fact is not the greatest one of all time. Fit is sometimes very poor, but all in all, quite nice result can be achieved. Thanks for scrolling the album!

Congratulations. I'm currently busy building two Special Hobby / Eduard Bf 109E's so I know how fiddly these kits are.

Thanks for the credits. (This aircraft has been built quite a long time ago, so I do not remember clearly, sorry for that.) I used transparent plastic "foil", which is a bit thinner than e.g. the blister of DeAgostini 1/43 scale models, take a quick look at your household for the proper one. I held this piece of foil over a candle, waited until it softened a bit, then I pulled it on a used airbrush needle from above. As a result, the needle pierced the melted foil while providing a little cone on the top. Recommended to paint the cone before cutting it from the foil. At the end you can put it on the rigging. (I was trying many many times until I succeeded, it was not an easy task.) I hope this helped, have a fun build!🙂

As for the riveting: the Z63 riveting tool is the best on the market in my opinion, I regularly use them in 1/72 and 1/48 as well. It is another dimension compared to trumpeter. Roll it on the surface close to a dymo embossing tape, the result well be more than satisfying. ak-interactive.com/p..-riveting-tool-1-72/

@Gergely Kenderfi thanks for the fast answer, sorry for my late answer! I will try your technique, hopefully the result will be as good as yours 🙂
