I stumbled across a thread on another forum recently that had a tyer using press-on plastic fingernails for some small patterns. It intrigued me and I found a youtube video where a tyer had employed the press-on fingernails in a crab pattern. So, I took a plunge and acquired via Amazon some of these press-on fingernails.
504 pieces in multiple sizes for less than $7 bucks seemed like a reasonable gamble. They are easy to work with and take color from markers very well. So far I've had no problems adhering them to fly bodies with UV resin. As to their effectiveness and durability, that will remain to be tested later this spring.
