The Creative Explorer Posted January 27, 2017 Posted January 27, 2017 (edited) This beast is finally done, even though I got it done within 2 months or so, except for the paintjob, it went together well and there is such a nice base for adding details. I didn't with this one, as it was a review model. But my fingers itched for improving and adding detail.Even if you build it box-stock, it will end in a nice model. It looks pretty good and capture the car well. The only fit issue I encountered was that the body sat too low or the engine too high. So I had to get the body about 2mm higher, in order to get the hood to shut. And the chrome is bad, if one wants to do it properly, it has to be redone. But the new decalsheet really makes it a better model, so much detail in the new decalsheet. The kit wheels are horrible to see, so I made my own Hallibrands and they look soooo much better on this car, Oh, and the scale is 1/8... Edited January 27, 2017 by The Creative Explorer
lghtngyello03 Posted January 27, 2017 Posted January 27, 2017 Holy cow! This is flawless. The paint is amazing. I thought I was looking at the real thing!
JerseyRed Posted January 27, 2017 Posted January 27, 2017 I agree the paint is really nice. Very smooth and deep. What color is it that you used?
espo Posted January 27, 2017 Posted January 27, 2017 I like all of the extra effort you put into the detailing. Even the flat silver inside the chrome tail light housings. The interior trim looks perfect.
RAMBENNA Posted January 29, 2017 Posted January 29, 2017 fantastic build great job and excellent color
geetee66 Posted January 29, 2017 Posted January 29, 2017 Wait a minute...!Are you sure that's not 1:1?Seriously good model. Paint is utterly fantastic. Looks like it was well worth the bother of re-chroming the brightwork.just, just...brilliant!!
