Filler Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Has anyone used these? I can't find any details about them. I understand that Archer do rivets that are resin 'dots' on decal film, but they're not particularly cheap. These microscale ones are less expensive so are they just small grey printed dots?

Mark Harmsworth Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 There are these in 1/48 for £7.99. Don't look grey to me though. Mark https://www.hannants.co.uk/product/MS48042 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Lime Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Have a look at Microscale's website here for a better description. Mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Belbin Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 Interestingly, they're described as being two dimensional. Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharknose Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 Are they individual rivets to stick on? I can see how that would go for me.... Get first one. Dropped it. Dropped another Dropped another.. Repeat for about 15 mins.. Abandon rivets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you sure that's not a knitting pattern you're following? 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thorfinn Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 I just used a home-printed version of the same idea on my Glencoe Viscount wings, and it gave a nice subtle effect: Didn't realize Microscale did them commercially...but I figured someone would, sooner or later!

dnl42 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 I use the Archer Fine Transfers details. They're quite good. They provide a sheet of details arranged in rows. You first cut a row of details and then cut the row into the required length. There are some Youtube vids on their use. I think they're worth it. Here's an example of their use.
