I used as a reference pics of tanks holed by anti-tank guns. I didn't go for the shredded look of mauled aircraft. After all, the Falke is an armored flying tank so I tried to replicate the pierced armor effect.
First I used a drill bit and diamond point to make the holes.
I used a red hot needle to make the grooves of melted metal. I used a windproof lighter to heat the needle rather than a candle to avoid soot getting all over the place.
Lastly I used some styrene melted with lacquer thinner (I always have a jar of it at the ready) to make the lip of melted metal around the hole.
The final result.
