Exactly what I wanted to see was the hard bits, and great music choice. Carry on with more. Thanks!

Very good video. Showing the steps, the tools, but very importantly, the meticulousness required to do the task. I don’t have the patience to watch the very long videos, and I prefer one like this one, and then spend the hour trying to actually do it. Have also seen another video you made about the alufoil process. You make very inspirational and educational videos, which are a joy to watch, thanks.

I think its a great idea. The technique has been around a long time and I predict model kit manufactures will start incorporating this along with metal etch parts I gave it a go late 1970, They actually had packets of foil you could buy, however it didn't take off , however glues have advanced along with model scale. My attempt was on 1/48. Applying this to 1/24 makes the kit look amazing you're a brave soul :-)

Very good. Don't worry about the length of the video. It's as long as the process takes and it's easy to watch on 1.5 speed or just FF through to see the bits you want. The main thing is showing the process.

I've been at sea for 3 months now and can't decide whether I want to see this finished more or less than I want to get off the ship! Any length, any music, don't care.

ON the strength of your on going video build, I went and bought myself Airfix 1st Edition Spitfire+poster+extra's....£95 ...Thank You very much indeed! WOW.......what bloody amazing kit, my FIRST 1/24 kit....and I'm utterly STUNNED by it...STUNNED. I can't take the smile of my face...WOW!!!😻 RIchard.......If you try to please everyone, your'll end up pleasing no-one....JUST DO YOUR OWN THING!! That's why I'm watching along with many.many others...RESPECT everyone RESPECT. Love the music....almost sent me to sleep💤😽💤Friendly greetings from, Londinium Britannica.

Aye, Richard, I think it’s grand that you teach us to do this technique.

1 hour of no talking precise crafting sounds might be quite popular asmr video tbh ;)

I absolutely love this! It’s definately something I would like to try on my models. And I would love a longer video, without music. I also build RC models and it’s certainly something I will use on them.

Really enjoying this build of yours 😎👌☕️ ps loved the music ,thanks for showing

If you liked the music.....it's called Better Days at Besound or long version at Irysia. Can't get it out of mind!😌😻😌

Fascinating stuff Richard - I would have liked some narration around how you dealt with the join between the two pieces on the leading edge of the fin. Having seen you go through the single panel process in detail, I'm happy to give it a go; however the join between two panels is the bit that gives me the heebie geebies for now.

I had a thought, a " what if"....Building a balsa model aircraft and instead of paper/ tissue. Use aluminum foil for the skin. On plastic models, the " seams" are seen. Just cut the foil to match the seam

Oh and please mention all the tools needed, there are some special and unusual ones like embossing pens and the like

Bro a silent film version...I'm still looking and learning ur technique....thank u for All your work sir.

I think compound curves, the real complex ones, can be done with Alclad paint or the like while bigger surfaces can be foiled (and not spoiled). I have done really small 1:72 models with foil and mixed the foil with the gleaming side and the dull side of the alufoil and also different types of alufoil. And how will we do the titanium surfaces? Paint? Or paint the foil transparant style?

Great demonstration video Richard and lovely application solution for a difficult part of the airframe 👏 Could you remind me what Foil you are using ? 🍻

What glue to use? I have 2 spits at 1/24 in their boxes, one is a floatplane. Is the foil one the prototype K1054? Or some number like that without searching

Excellent job, did you use bare metal foil?

this would be petty neat if you could cut in to perfect peises whit a laser cutter and
