You can buy gold foil at Michael's?? (Damn!) Where was that when I was doing MY LEM?

By the way, Dan, your LEM is looking great!

Hershey's almond kisses provide a great source of gold foil and there is no kind of paper backing!

Tell me more about the gold foil -- like what section of Michael's did you find it? I need to check that out. I'm working on a modeling project and I'm also on a low-carb diet, so buying Cadbury chocolate bars for their gold foil is too much of a temptation....

LOL...actually the gold I bought at a Michael's craft store for 5.00. The silver foil is Reynold's aluminum foil off the roll.

What are you using for the foil (which candy bar)?

I've started an Airfix LEM and am using foil and lots of stretched sprue!
