Hey Guys, I visit the forums every day and have developed a feel for most of the regulars around here. I read most of the posts and occasionally post a post myself.
I currently have about 10 "irons in the fire" and tonight made my first attempt using Bare Metal Foil. I have to say that while I was very aprehensive and nervous about using the product, I am very pleased with the experience and the results. I see most of the posts here and must say that I have seen some "so-so" foil jobs and was so afraid that it may be above my abilities. At the same time, I have seen some spectacular detailing using foil.
I am posting some pic's of my first attempt and would like some crytique. I know that the photo's I've posted don't amplify the foiling, but I think they give enough evidence of my work. I found the foil very easy to work with and was very surprised with the ease of application and the overall results. I'm using the "black Chrome" foil as I am going for a silver/black theme on this build. Any advice or experiences to share??
(I've postponed the foiling of the windshield & wipers until another night. It's getting late)

Oh, yeah...Doog, this is the Revell/Monogram kit, (85-7457) I'm also doing the same kit as a "junker" and plan on displaying these 2 kits as a "then and now" display.
