I do much the same process but instead of foil I use thin clear plastic which formed the original package. It holds the rivet imprints better and seems easier to work with.
Loved the tutorial my brother. Very informative and I love that bel air it gives me an idea for a bel air gasser I have. Thanks. Keep up the good work brother.😎👍
Very clever. But I keep thinking what About skipping the edge folding part? Not all armor is so thick. Maybe there’s a technical reason I’m not considering?
Cool idea to use the aluminum, so far I've just used thin cardboard. The rivets are a nice touch!
Glad you like! I will watch out for rivets on you makes!! (No pressure 😉)
@@WastelandsRaceway I've been meaning to try some rivets on some stuff, guess I'd better get on it!
Takeaway food packaging works well too

That's interesting.... how well does paint take to it?
@@WastelandsRaceway if you use plastic rated primer, it should do fine.
Good idea. I also use soda or beer can. It's little stronger aluminum and you don't need to straight it, if you don't damage the can.
Might give that a try . Thanks for the tip!
This is brilliant! I definietly have to give this a try!
Glad you like!
Very cool!! I love seeing creative ideas like this!
Thank you! There will be more in the near future!
Thanks - this looks simple enough that even I can do it - as long as my girlfriend doesn't get tired o me hoarding garbage for gaming :D
Hide it all .... deny all knowledge ... thats bound to work!

Very cool !! Will be trying this out soon

Thank you for an AMAZING video. New Sub!!!
Welcome aboard LJ!
So gonna use this!
Go for it!
Bigger rivets rule !!! Thank you for this idea
Indeed .... bigger, better, faster, MORE!!
I... think we can learn a bit about stuff from each other 👍Gonna steal this armor idea off of You. lol
Its there to be stolen! Be great to see how you get on with it
Good technique! 😃
Thank you! Cheers!
"Here's one I prepared earlier" - love you you knew it was going to sound ridiculous and very 'cooking show' but you said it anyway
🤪
I like it a lot. I am waiting for guns print from my brother but plates I am gonna do by myself. And I think I do it yourway
You can use all sorts of trash to pimp up your cars. Go mad!
Love this! Thanks! Can't wait to use it on my cars.
Your welcome . We aim to please
Very clever. But I keep thinking what About skipping the edge folding part? Not all armor is so thick. Maybe there’s a technical reason I’m not considering?
Very true, and sometimes I do use a single thickness with no folding. I am usually a chunky armour kinda guy though!
@@WastelandsRaceway chunky armor means better implied protection
That, and its easier for my aging eyes to see when I try to paint it!
What a great idea
this is a great idea I learned something new today thank you.
It will also work with the thin plasticard you use on your conversikns
@@WastelandsRaceway Yep I know but I never considered tin foil as a valid building material so I'm adding it to my arsenal thanks to your video.
Awesome!
Thanks!
Super tuto 👍Merci
Je suis content que cela t'aie plu
Superb!

@@WastelandsRaceway - Thanks, I have a small collection of diecast. And I am into big time HO slot car’s also.
Really cool result with materials we all have at home! Fantastic.
And the best part .... the materials cost nothing!
👍🏻
Thanks . Let us know how your attempt went 😁
Going to be saving baby formula seals from now on. Cheers!
All our friends and family have similar instructions!
@@WastelandsRaceway Since I am primarily working in Micro Machine scale, this solution is way better than plasticard. Thanks again.
Don’t you lose the rivet over time by handling the car?
Hmm ... Good question. The answer is that I don't know. So far its not been a problem.
Good tip though, thanks. :)
No worries!
