From Japan via TSMC! A beautiful rendition of the Lockheed Constellation is a work of the aluminum art. Should we make aluminum foil an official "paper substance"?

Great site but it is so aggravating that it has just enough English that Chrome won't translate it.

Ok but what is it??????, any one

It's titled アブロ721, which translates to Avro 721 - but I can't find anything else about it?!

Haven't a clue Gary, but I hope you can create a paper model of it!

the avro 721 was a proposed british low-level bomber design from 1952, but the project was cancelled. via google image search result on "avro 721" i found this album, a building report of a plastic model avro 721 slideshow

for some specifications, click here

the aircraft you're looking for looks to me a late 1940's, early 1950's fighter/interceptor and not a low level bomber. this article on wikipedia mentions 3 british twin boomed jet fighter designs from the era by de havilland, so my best guess is this is perhaps one of the proposed prototypes.
but to be sure i asked this question in another forum, visited by lot's of british flightsim fanatics, surely they will know.
it's a solid model, perhaps the design drawings have been published in a magazine or it's available as a kit?
or ask the owner of the website who posted the model......

There is a self-adhesive paper that has an aluminum coating. The base paper is 80 gsm and the aluminum layer is 10 gsm, giving a total of 90 gsm. Beer labels are used.

Would this stuff work for NMF aircraft?
