Jay t. Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 I just finished this one to give to my father. It's built just the way he wants to build his real Comet. Maybe this will be motivation to get back on his. I tried a few new details for me on this one such as blackwashing, adding an antenna,darker panel lines and bmf on emblems before painting. I also scribbed panel lines at the bottoms of the fenders and tops along cowl. Painted Peacock Blue with wheels and tires from Revell's 32 Ford five window. Thanks for looking.........Jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlie8575 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 Beautiful job, Jay. If you have the opportunity sometime, stop up at MassCar. We meet third the Wednesday at 7:00-ish at Porter & Chester Institute on the Canton/Stoughton line right off of Rt. 139. Turn right at the Cumberland Farms onto Turnpike St. and follow it down about two miles, we're above the auto shop. Charlie Larkin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
