Dec 01, 2008 Like other incurable perfectionists in our hobby, I was discouraged by modeling natural-metal finishes. Metallic paints never seemed convincing on anything much larger than a 1/48 scale landing gear strut. About a year ago, I saw pictures of

: 1stDibsOct 17, 2014 Bob Bradford presented a demonstration of the technique he uses to apply aluminum foil to his models to replicate the unpainted natural metal aircraft finishes used by many air forces over time. He had two stunning examples in the form of a 1/72 scale MiG 19 (from the KoPro kit) and a 1/72 scale Saab J29 (from the Heller kit).

Flight Skinz requires a solid surface to adhere to, such as a fiberglass fuselage or build up surfaces that have been glassed in a traditional way. As is the way with building and covering model aircraft, there is always more than one way to accomplish a task.
Jul 09, 2017 Flite-Metal is a 0.0018 thick self-adhesive aluminum tape that can be applied in individual panels to achieve a convincing finish. While not a poly or plastic material, Flite-Metal still has the ability to stretch up to 25% of its original size to allow it to conform to some gradual concave and convex surfaces.

Sep 04, 2007 Foil-On-Foil In some cases the foil-on-foil approach can be easier and will produce some more realistic panel edges on 1/72 scale aircraft. In other case it is a little more difficult. Foil-on-foil-on-foil (3 layers or more) should not overlap existing panel lines when the identity of the overlapping panel needs to stay in tact, i.e ...

Mar 14, 2010 I have also learned the importance of cleaning your model before painting, nice to have it reinforced. I have used the Model Master Non-Buffing Metalizer but I did not like the finish. I will try the Aluminum. Normally, I build period versions of aircraft, but this project is meant to represent restored warbirds so I want a more polished look.

The Foil comes in several different shades and has an adhesive backing which sticks very well to the model. Matte aluminum is my choice for aircraft and car trim. It can easily be cut and trimmed with a new Xacto blade. These are some steps to follow when using foil. Once again, the model will need to be clean and well constructed.
