Propulsion_amateur Posted July 22, 2020 Share #1 Posted July 22, 2020 Currently into an LCS-2 USS Independence Trumpeter 1:350 build. Want to try and model the flight hangar reasonably accurately, the internal walls of which appear (photo link below ~ credit navy.mil) to be layered in a combined heat reflective / sound attenuation material. I have glued in internal archway / bearers, made from 1.0mm Plasticard and will make some internal conduit / piping from various other bits and pieces I have lying around. I also have silver Tamiya paint which I can spray (onto Mr Hobby air brushed primer) but wondering how to get a "textured" finish to the reflective surfaces. Thanks in advance.

wefalck Posted July 26, 2020 Share #2 Posted July 26, 2020 When I look at the linked picture, I don't think that any structure of the the aluminium? lining inside the hangar would be perceptible at a 1:350 scale. I would spray the internal structure in silver and then modulate the silver with a soft (e.g. B8) pencil to simulate the folds etc. in the lining.
