AWB Tempest F/C....

Well, I have finally found some time to get back to the bench for more than seven minutes and decided to do a drag car build. I used the K.I.S.S. method on this one and learned a valuable lesson... KISS = COmpleted Builds....LOL..

This is from the Model King reissue, I know it isnt totaly accurate, but I wanted a nice quick build for the shelf. Slixx, provided the Jesse Tyree decals for the car.

Anyway, enough of my bs, here are the pics....

Shot with Tamiya gloss white, right outta the can, that was one of the KISS rules, no airbrush

All spray cans, make for less time spent cleaning up and more time building

Kinda hard to see here, but the dash is all Sharpies and gel pens for the detailing

And finally a shot of those killer slicks from Al @ Ma's Resin, nice soft rubber OH YEA...

As always, questions, comments or critiques always welcome....

Looks like a great start! Only one thing, your rear tires are on the wrong sides. Right now your car is going backwards. LOL. Dont sweat it, I have tried to do the same thing. LOL. I cant wait to see this thing finished! Jody

Jody,

Thanks, I did not look too closely when I shot the pics, they are not mounted to the car yet, as I still ahve some work to do to the wheels, but thanks for the comments!!!
