Gt fan Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 This is just a quick build to kill some time while my Ferrari is drying. I wanted to try some new weathering pencils from AK that I picked up. Chassis and body were all done in about 4hrs . Chrome on the body was done with a 1mm Motlow chrome pen. I will add black details after it drys. The pencils are wonderful to work with and have a great results. The were sold individual or in sub-sets or a complete set. Dash gauges were done with pencils as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interior will be grey . Pencils worked very well and easy to use , you have to keep them sharp. I just ordered more from Mega Hobby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gt fan Posted September 22, 2019 Author Share Posted September 22, 2019 Thank you.. This was a cheap kit to have around to try something new. The fit in the kit is a bit wonky but they give you a bunch of extra parts. Three sets of wheels and extra seat and has photo etched emblems. Not bad for $22.00Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
