Hi Kezza.
Nice tip on that method to retire the clear parts

Rui, many tears were shed with previous attempts to cut clear parts from the tree, as 'shatter' would happen and the spider web effect would radiate out from the stressed area. Not a pretty sight. Then I saw a photo in Finescale Modeller Magazine of how to remove clear bits with no damage, and I have done the candle and hot blade ever since. 🙂

Yah, Finescale Modeller has lots of nice and interesting tips.
The last one I saw was:
Aircraft lights from pin tops:
The curved tops of translucent pushpins
can be cut to look like wingtip lights for
1/32 and 1/48 scale aircraft.
When my 1/32 scale F-14 Tomcat did
not include translucent plastic for the
lights, I quartered the pushpin tops and,
with a little fine tuning, had realistic lights
— and even a taillight. After sanding down
the bottom of a purple pin, I also had an
aircraft sensor light.

I think Holger could use this one in his 1/48 Italeri helicopter 😉 🤔

Album info

I spent many hours and several sheets of ultra chrome 'Bare metal foil' getting this model to turn out like it has.
I had not heard of ICM as a model making concern until this year, and I now know they have been around for many, many years, but just of late, the quality has come ahead in leaps and bounds. (except for their chroming process) 🙁
