  • Archer release Surface Details

    Archer Fine Transfers announced Surface Details, their new technology that provides resin model finishing details on decal paper.

    From their website:

    Archer announces an entirely new product for scale model builders - Surface Details. This is an entirely new technology that allows us to cast resin onto clear decal film to create three-dimensional rivet heads, fasteners, access panels, weld beads and even armor casting symbols which modelers apply under paint to add or replace these fine details to their models. Cast resin on clear decal film. Apply like decals under paint

    cool… I’d like to see examples of these on models. The one example (casting symbols) is rather limited in its scope.

    Rivets would be nice. In case you want to put some more on your baneblade :-)

    Wow this could make some of my conversions alot simpler and easier to do - I wonder what kind of sealing you need to do to make it stay on a mini for game table use

    This is cool, but the rivets may be too small. The rivets are listed as .008, .011, and .014 diameter. The largest rivet is smaller than 1/64 inch in diameter (.0156). A 1mm rivet is .039 inches.
