Beer can Scottish Fold from Canon Creative Park

Found an adhesive that's really amazing. The label's in Japanese but the glue is probably from China. Searched on the internet but could not find its origin. Anyway, tried it out on simple animal models from Canon Creative Park and chose the Scottish Fold and it worked. Added whiskers to make the cat more cute.

Wow! That came out great. I've seen many beer can airplanes, but this is the first beer can cat. I have got to try that one of these days. Well done.

Hi, Tim, the only graphics is the eyes and nose part that are actual cut-outs from the original plan. They are first glued with PVA on to the appropriate places and then glued over with the said adhesive which dried up quickly like CA. My suggestion is that keep the face details as much as possible because they are the artist's soul.

I got a large batch of that mystery adhesive as well. Can't read the label, but I'll be darn if it doesn't glue anything, and I MEAN anything!

Here you are, the first one was bought locally on the street at less than USD1 each and I've got only two left. Will have to hunt again in the city to get this guy who sells them.

The second one, Poly-Zap, from Micro-Mark at USD5.69 each and total USD23.89 including postage airmail. Poly-Zap appears to work on PET clear plastic sheet and has yet to be tested on aluminium can sheets.

Hi papermate:
This no longer just a papermodel, it is a well achieved piece of Pop-Art.
Congratulations
Carlos
