Not many videos out there on foil for aircraft models. Thanks for sharing how this stuff works as I decide whether it’s worth it or not to give it a try…
Blacken both sides of the knife blade with a Sharpie or the like, it reduces reflection making it much easier to keep on course when cutting. A pencil eraser also makes a good burnisher 👍

It’s definitely not easy stuff to work with. If you do decide to use it I would recommend putting it on an aircraft with relatively easy contours.
MIG-15. MIG 21. F-86. F104. Those sorts of things will work great with foil. They're cylinders, basically, with some flat parts.
That’s a great point! I may try foil again with one of those.
I used the copper foil when I built my model of the U.S.S Constellation
Very nice! I’d love to see some pictures of your build.

Thanks for the tips! I’ll try tackling foil again in the future. On a much plane with much simpler lines.
