iamsuperdan Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 (edited) The weathering on this one is fantastic. I picked up the molded in white Canon version a couple of years ago, haven't started it yet. I kick myself, back in the late 80s on a trip to England, I bought the red version shown at a car boot sale. Slapped it together, it rolled off the shelf one too many times, and I tossed the whole things. I wish I hadn't done that. Would have been great to rebuild.I'm planning on building mine showroom stock. Although if I had weathering skills, yours would be an inspiration!

Chuck Most Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 I wondered what happened to this one. Loving what I'm seeing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Zombie Posted November 27, 2015 Author Share Posted November 27, 2015 I scratchbuild the wipers out of 9 pieces each. I planned to order photoetch parts, but as you can see, everything can be built from scraps and junk... And that's a wrap. It's done: http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/108150-1984-ford-transit-esci-124/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spex84 Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Incredible work. The rust on the body near the front bumper looks 100% real, complete with flaking and bubbling. How did you do that?Great scratchbuilding and detailing..the wipers, tool box, floor mats...and I love the fire extinguisher poking out under the seat; it looks real too!
