My entire list of comlpleted builds for 2018.

 Revell 1985 Mustang SVO.

I made new front signals from clear resin, detail the engine with bits of wire and various scraps.  I'll add some chassis detail pictures soon.

Really like this build! Your paintwork looks outstanding! Also really like your wheel choice; where did you source those wheels from?

Thank you guys for the compliments.

 

I got the wheels from a Fujimi 180SX Type-X.

Super realistic job under the hood and the paint and headlights look great.  

I agree. Sharp.

I always had a liking for these cars and remember looking with awe at one in the showroom when I had my 1982 mustang in for service at the time.  These were ahead of their time and you did it justice.

Very nice clean looking build. Great color and paint work, and I like the setting for your pictures. 

Thanks, epso.  The setting is just so top of the wife's Infiniti in front of my house.  I was just getting some daylight pictures and it was handy.  Some day, I will make a little Dio to take pics on, but until then, the roof of the cleanest car will likely be my photo booth.  Lol

 

Thank you so much, all of you.  It is this encouragement and support that keeps me coming back to this site.

Thank you all for the compliments.

 

Gino, The Fox Body Mustang has always been a favorite of mine.  The Euro styling of the SVO that is shared with the Ford Sierra XR4Ti always caught my eyes.

Very Clean Build, Great job!!!

Thank you Steve.  I have been trying to keep my finger prints off of the glass and paint.  It is difficult!  Lol

Sweet, clean, and SHINY :D:D:D

Thanks Jim!  This was a trial with acrylic paint and I think it's fair to say I got pretty good results.  I used Testors MM Ice Blue Pearl over black and Testors Acrylic Gloss Clear, lots of polishing, but it went well.  Also, it is incredibly easy to repair .

Gorgeous Stang, Ken.  If I only get one done this year I hope it’s as nice as this.

Are you kidding me, Curt!?!?  That TA, Galaxy, and Maverick you built are amazing!

Sharp SVO. Great engine detail and those head lights are brilliant!

Ron, the engine was a challenge, I'm not going to lie.  And I just got tired of chrome lenses and decided to do something about it. Thank you for the compliment.
