Tom Sargent Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 Well I finally got this one finished up, seems like it takes me forever to get anything completed with the 10 month old crawling around the house. (not that i am really complaining, I would'nt trade either of my kids for the world) just not producing much these days. But anyways those of you that have seen the WIP know that I used a Mike's scale speed shop resin, powerslide decals, and a donor chassis from the kit. All and all not to bad of a conversion, making the windows seemed to give me the biggest fit. Scratch built a tack for it and did a little wiring inside the cockpit, some other minor detailing nothing to crazy just somthing to spruce it up a bit. Thanks for looking.

johnII Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Nice job Tom. Those Powerslide decals are awesome. How did you like the resin COT? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Sargent Posted March 31, 2008 Author Share Posted March 31, 2008 Thanks everyone, I appreciate all the kind words. JohnII to answer your question the resin body was great. Very clean cast, no problems you see with some resins. Like I said before my biggest hickup was making the front and rear windows, but only because I had never done it before. The body comes with templates for them I just wanted them to fit perfect so it took me a few trys. Otherwise a very enjoyable build. Thanks agian.
