Mercury Comet Caliente '64 in "Peacock Turquoise"

Thanks Carl! -
Hi there, I got this some time ago from a valued modeler-mate of mine. The kit (the Model King re-release) was properly built but the original wheels have been missing because they were being used elsewhere. The model had automotive paint and clear on it, with some orange peel showing. As this kit is pretty rare these days, I decided to give it a go and make the best of it. I sanded the whole body to remove most of the orange peel, after that it got the Micro Mesh treatment, followed by polishing. Wheels are from Pegasus, the exhaust pipes are scratch-built.

Silk Cut Jaguar XJR-8 Sprint Type
Tommy124 replied to stevehansen's topic in Other Racing: Road Racing, Salt Flat Racers
Good job on one of the coolest race cars ever! IIRC, the purple areas are not all covered by decals contained in this kit so additional painting is required. I also remember that Zero Paints are (or were) offering the purple color to match the Hasegawa decal colors exactly. Here comes another compliment: I don’t see any color deviation. So how did you do it? -

Many thanks gents, this is much appreciated! -
Another nice one Ludwig! And a great save, of course. The color scheme fits the car nicely but is not to be seen often. And I like the way you did the exhaust pipes.

Twenty in '20: Tommy124's model car year in review

It's called the Corona builds... Home office most of the time in 2020, e.g. saving me a lot of time going to and from the office by car. Plus it adds a lot of flexibility to how I spend my "daily routine"... You have a point there! But then again, I have been a "non-finisher" in term of modelling in former times and most of my builds ended up in the bin. That was a long time ago, but now I enjoy building and finishing (!) models even more... -
Hi Anders, the images are dripping with quality, a nice variety of builds, and I like all of them!
