James Bond's Aston Martin DB5

Pain them with RUbber pain, like "Flex-Seal" and they will come to life. Works great on steering wheels, and the gear shift lever knob too.

I would if it wasn't so "stinky". In addition, I would have to order it and I don't want to pay so much for just one model.

The "Electrical Tape" I use is not stinky at all. It comes in small bottles, so doesn't cost much at all. Once you have it, you will find yourself using it on many models because as it's drying, it's easy to push textures into it.

I really appreciate your tips. However, I don't see anything below 9 € + shipping which is too expensive for me since I have no idea IF that stuff the are offering works at all. The risk is just too great. You cannot imagine how much trouble I have to get water-clear printable transparent sheet. That is the main reason why I'm stuck with my Crichton build. :/

If you went into an electric repair supply shop, they would have small bottles of the stuff, as it is used widely in electronics. You can prepare paper by clear coating it if you think it will penetrate. I've never that problem.
