Bruno Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Here's my take on Revell's new Hemicuda. One of my favorite cars, with my favorite color; red! Red exterior with red interior, red Shaker bubble and red bumpers I corrected the wheel opening lips, added tire decals, seat belts and sprak plug wires. Everything else is from the box. Paint is automotive basecoat / clearcoat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldscool Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Oh yeah! Now that's what I'm talkin' about! Outstanding build Bruno. The corrected wheel openings jumped out at me as soon as I saw the first pic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrObsessive Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Looks absolutely excellent Bruno! I see you also did something with the upper quarter window trim..........you sharpened up the corner that supposed to be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruno Posted January 5, 2014 Author Share Posted January 5, 2014 Nothing special Bill, only BMF, I did not do anything else on the upper quarter window trim. Only special work I did on the body is the correction of the Wheel openings and fix the crease on the left side quarter panel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Stunning. How did you do the wheel wells? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruno Posted January 5, 2014 Author Share Posted January 5, 2014 Well, at first, I just wanted to reshape the existing wheel opening lip by sanding it, then after sanding for a while, I found out it was just looking worse... So I decided to sand the Wheel opening lips completly flush to the fenders, then glued on a .020" Evergreen rod, then blend the rod using some putty, sand, putty, sand, then primer, sand, primer sand, primer, etc... While at this, I also fixed the crease in the quarter panels, using an eraser as a sanding block. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
