Does anyone know a quick way to reproduce 1/24 scale rivets. I'm currently workin on the Tamiya Lotus Super 7 as a small diorama project but I think the underside lacks detail. The box shot shows the correct layout for the rivets so i just need to find out how to produce them. Any sugestions? Thanks guys! :smoker2:

I'd feel more comfortable working with white glue, though. You can pop white glue right off if you mess up...

i have done it with a piece of stretched sprue by taking off extremely thin slices with a razor blade but this just amounted to lots of swearing. Go for the other method.
