Just got a new sheet of foil and now I can get the Nova foiled..I think this is the best sheet I have ever got in a while

I always do my windows the sides first then the top and bottom

I use a 1/8 x 1/8 piece of balsa wood to burnish my foil

All the script is foiled before I prime and paint then the paint is rubbed off with a pencil eraser and 90% alcohol
