Revell '49 Merc

I haven't built one of these before but I've heard good things about it so I made a start on mine yesterday. So far progress has been rapid, the engine is finished and ready to be fitted once the chassis is painted.

The body has had a coat of primer and a mock up shows it sitting nice and low, as it should be.

I need to decide on a color next.

I've made some more progress over the weekend. The underside and engine bay have been painted Ford Roman Bronze from a spray can.

I've also used some 040'' evergreen strip to add some trim to the body.

The plan is to paint the area below the trim gold and the rest bronze.

Its been a while since I did any work on the Merc but over the last few days the interior has been painted and assembled.

I've also had a chance to get the body painted now that the weather has improved.

So far I've been impressed by how well this kit has gone together. I can see myself getting another one.
