Yup. My sculptor buddy said lots of places do it, he had done it himself.

It's not "plating", not as I see it, anyway.

I have to say...the P-38 looked cool...but it did NOT look "realistic". Not at all.
Keep in mind that is a subjective opinion, not a provable point.
I think flight metal(perhaps mostly due to the panel by panel process?) looked TEN TIMES more realistic.
The price of $3900, in my OPINION, is not worth the effect. I don't think it's an UNFAIR price at all...the labor involved in surface prep must be pretty serious, and with the same work, he could probably do an entire car or somethign like that.
But I think for $3900, you can probably find some really bored person to flite-metal your entire airplane!
But if the client is happy(he certaily WILL have a totally cool-looking sabre) then that's between him and the metal morph guy.
But like Aeropoxy and Flite Metal, it's not a proprietary process at all.


I don't know who Bill Meador is. YOU don't know who Bill Meador is. He never existed. He has been dissapeared. Understand? If you know what's good for you, you will never bring this up again.
