Chuckyg1 Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Hey all. First time posting a build. Revell 48 ford convertible. Fade always, grill/surround & bumpers from the custom coupe. Wheels/tires are modelhaus units. Exhaust tips are flared aluminum tubing, and the windshield was cut to fit from a bulk package of razor blades. Followed Tim Boyd's Recent SA article for better finishes. Best black paint job I've ever accomplished. Not perfect, but it came out pretty good I thought.

'70 Grande Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Excellent build! Your paintwork is outstanding! Many times, a minor addition on a build can add alot to the overall look; I think this is the case with the nice little cowl pinstriping you added to this build; it's like icing-on-the-cake! Great job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
