I would like to ask for some advice/suggestions on how to go about replicating skin details such in the Airworld line of models as in the pic attached.
1. Raised over lapped panels, they do not look like litho plating (no dents). Is it sculpted body filler ?
2. Rivets and fasteners, how do you replicate deep detail rivets without using the soldering iron technique?
