Applying Tissue?
The Peck's IS the good stuff. Go back to my first method and ignore all the second part.
And in my books she's got the right idea. Building models like the Herr kits is geat fun in itself. That little Monocoupe has been getting lots of photo milage because it was a reawakening for me about how much fun can be had with a few sticks of 1/16 sq and some scraps of 1/32 sheet. And this was even after building lots of old time rubber models over the past 12 years. But THOSE were for contests. The Monocoupe was just for ME.
I'm planning on doing less contest stuff and more for ME as that's where the smiles come from.
