Steamboat Posted May 29, 2017 Posted May 29, 2017 My first completed build since February. My uncle had a 1:1 truck, and I plan to give him this one for his birthday. I just wanted to do a box stock build to keep my hands busy while waiting for filler to dry on other projects. The paint is Tamiya red, and came out about a 6 out of 10. The Moebius F-100 is a really nice kit. All parts fit with very little finessing. The grille is a work of art. The body was nearly perfect, with the exception of a could small sinkholes on the front fenders right behind the headlights, and the cab roof needed to be straightened a little. If I wanted to spend a little more time on it, I would have tried to make the side mirrors and the wiper blades more true to scale. Otherwise, I would definitely recommend this kit.
leafsprings Posted May 29, 2017 Posted May 29, 2017 (edited) Excellent job, great color and attention to details. You did super nice job on the headlight bezel black trim paint, not overdone. IMO, the '70 grill is hard to beat. Are wheels painted Ford Whimbledon white? Edited May 29, 2017 by leafsprings
mikemodeler Posted June 4, 2017 Posted June 4, 2017 Very nice, looks like a cleanly built and detailed truck! Your Bare Metal foil looks great, I suspect it wasn't as easy to do as the pictures indicate.
thatz4u Posted June 30, 2017 Posted June 30, 2017 nice looking 70 Effie, lots of possibilities with the Moebius pickups.....
