Starship Modeler Discussion Forums

I have never really done a wash before, so how exactly do I go about doing it?

Thanks for the info Ryuzuki.

Anyone got any more suggestions?

Bare Metal Foil, that's it! That's what it was I got. Thanks for jogging my memory Kylwell!

I think it's called aluminum tape, not sure.. .but you can use it to put on model cars and such where there are areas supposed to be painted chrome but it gives it a more real touch...

Does anyone know where I can get aluminum tape from online?
