Picture by Nigel Perren Attached is a photo from Nigel Perren that illustrates a great idea for holding aircraft models while decalling. The idea is to stick a wing or other part of the aircraft into Styrofoam to immobilize the model. This is great, because it prevents excessive handling which can damage the finish, as you know. You would make the indentation in the Styrofoam with the unpainted wing and then use this holder later when the model is painted and ready for decalling. Another example of one of those elegantly simple ideas that makes an otherwise awkward task so much easier. Will Hendriks
