Half scale soda can complete
I am making tiny half scale soda cans. Why? We'll get to that later.
This is a kit from Mr. Model in Brazil. It comes with four turned metal cans, photo etched tops (open and closed) and labels for beer and soda (clear and white decals).
I had to use my 4X magnifying readers and even still I was cross-eyed. I am ever in awe of those who can work so small.
I had considered making them with the open tops since empty cans make more sense for my purpose, but drilling was not easy for lack of being able to hold the can well and I didn't want to risk the glue not taking if I painted under the opening. Good luck telling the difference with the naked eye, anyway! haaaaaaaa
After getting the thick rope tied around (yeah, that's plain sewing thread), then came the tiny water slide decal that liked my fingers better than the can.
One down, three to go...
