Scribing Panel Lines & Riveting : Tutorial

[@malethor8822]

Thanks for share your knowledge. We use to see videos of modelers who show us the good modelers they are, but do not explain with those details the way to make it. Keep it going!!!

Those Hasegawa Tritool and Tamiya scribing templates are lifesavers for all the different-shaped maintenance panels on aircraft.

5:12 I always mess that up. At least it’s on the bottom most of the time. I did get one of those Tamiya s robes, they’re awesome. Cheers from America. Great video! Never seen a sewing needle like that.

Hi Bob. I was recently given an old Frog Shackleton kit and thi is a sea of raised rivets and panel lines. I have decide and begun to remove all of the surface detail. Now I would like to put some back on but I don't want to go mad on it. On the real thing some of the rivets were raised but I won't bother with that , there is to much to even contemplate doing them all again. So my plan is to do a pretty smooth finish on this kit. Its a vintage kit so I am not expecting miracles but I would like to produce a nice painted finish and to get the decals to go down well. As for tools I have an old worn X-Acto saw blade which will do for the panel lines and I also have a dental type of pointed scribing tool. I have quite a steady hand so I don't have a problem doing free hand and I have a steel rule to guide me. But this is a big aircraft even in 1/72nd scale. So my question is how far do you think I should go ? There are some serious fit issues so I will have to do some work on this especially around the engine nacelles. Any input would be appreciated. Regards.

I like my dental pick-style planer-scribers, too. The diamond carbide tips stay sharp forever.

Thank you!

I swear that Tamiya Scriber 2 is a reskinned Olfa P-Cutter.

Wow, who makes that circular rivet template you showed for a second???

[@Bob-b7x6v]

I need your wall-mounted paint racks to buy back my work bench space...

Bob it’s riveting and not riviting. Helpful video for people who struggle with scribing etc
