935k3 Posted April 15, 2017 Posted April 15, 2017 (edited) Finally got his one done. I got sidetracked working some vintage stereo equipment(Sansui 8080 receiver and BIC Formula6 speakers) The WIP is here BMW 635 The trim detail was tedious. The chrome on the tail lights was done with Spaztix Chrome airbrushed. Edited April 15, 2017 by 935k3
Shunter Posted April 15, 2017 Posted April 15, 2017 These were always such great cars, nice work on the build.
bbowser Posted April 15, 2017 Posted April 15, 2017 Really nice model, clean neat detailing. I used to have a Sansui receiver back in my bachelor military days, thanks for the memory jog!
Dodge Driver Posted April 15, 2017 Posted April 15, 2017 (edited) Great BMW! I really like 635 body style. I have the Monogram kit, with hopes of graduating to a Japan-made 635 someday. Edited April 15, 2017 by Dodge Driver
dublin boy Posted April 15, 2017 Posted April 15, 2017 Very nice, the black and chrome on the window trim is very well done, Looks difficult.Any pearls of wisdom?
FabbricaP Posted April 15, 2017 Posted April 15, 2017 Very nice, white engine bay and undercarriage really make all that detail stand out. Great build!
935k3 Posted April 16, 2017 Author Posted April 16, 2017 Thanks a everybody for the comments. The front and rear window was done by applying bare metal foil then I put some1/64" crepe drafting tape around the edge. The side windows were airbrushed wit TS-29 decanted. Then the foiling was done. I made the trim standout better by scribing before painting. The grill area was tough, especially the very thin horizontal strips that accent the grill.
nutboltu Posted April 17, 2017 Posted April 17, 2017 Amazing. I dont know what i would do with a model liek that. Has so many finicky chrome+rubber bits that need painstaking detailing. Probably end up doing a restomod. SO kudos to you.
Jim N Posted April 17, 2017 Posted April 17, 2017 Very nice. The black trim around the chrome is really stellar work!
XJ6 Posted April 18, 2017 Posted April 18, 2017 WOW all I can say is Wow...That is really nice Another fine piece
