4bangen Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 So I've had this idea for some time now, finally made it happen. took my old 40 ford and put it where it belongs, in the pasture! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4bangen Posted December 21, 2011 Author Share Posted December 21, 2011 I had a lot of fun and plan on doing A LOT more of these. its the perfect size for a mantel or to sit on a desk, and not take up to much room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W-409 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Making rusted cars is not easy, as I realised when I tried... You've done this very nicely, and diorama looks very good too. Great job on those rust holes. They look realistic, the size is just perfect and so on. Great diorama. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4bangen Posted December 23, 2011 Author Share Posted December 23, 2011 I laugh because I've actually said that this car has "my favorite rust hole" on it. lol. It's now on display at Old Town Hobby Shop in Lewisville TX. and I must say I'm hooked, I've always liked looking at my cars when there done. But now its like if I get at just the right angle, I'm really there with it. I am almost done with the two I'm doing as Christmas presents. I enjoyed working with the camaro but the mustang was one of the worst kits I've ever touched. I still need to put a few finishing touches on both but figured I'd share what I have done so far. and Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David G. Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Excellent work on all of those, but I think the old Ford is the best of the lot. David G. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High octane Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 While I'm not at all a fan of rust, rot, dings, dents, etc., your '40 Ford dio has character and looks really good, great job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
