James2 Posted December 31, 2021 Posted December 31, 2021 Mostly the Aurora kit with a few pieces from Revell. Not perfect by any means and definitely out of my wheel house. Full of new challenges and frustration but satisfying to finish. Perfect Match Classic Green Pearl exterior and a custom mix enamel brown leather interior. BMF, Alclad and acrylic for detail.
Mattilacken Posted December 31, 2021 Posted December 31, 2021 Beautiful work on a true classic! Great work! Need to build my dbs ?
Classicgas Posted December 31, 2021 Posted December 31, 2021 Very nice. I have the Aurora kit myself in the works. Hope it turns out half as nice. 1
89AKurt Posted December 31, 2021 Posted December 31, 2021 I got the kit from an estate, but sold it. Looks great, good to see one of these built. 1
spencer1984 Posted January 1, 2022 Posted January 1, 2022 Nicely done! I do wish more Aston Martins were available as kits. 1
Bainford Posted February 4, 2022 Posted February 4, 2022 Don't know how I missed this one. Beautiful Aston Martin. I really dig the DB4. I really need to build one of these. I love the colour, and the bumperless look. Your trials have paid off handsomely. I have a file of about 1500 car photos from the net that runs on slideshow on my model bench as project inspiration, and among them is a black DB4 without bumpers. It looks so cool, much like yours, and every time the photo pops up, I think I need to build one. 1
Steve Geer Posted February 4, 2022 Posted February 4, 2022 (edited) That old Aurora kit was a pretty decent model, especially for its time. Happy to give yours a double thumbs-up. ?? The detail, finish and overall quality is excellent as well as the color (inside and out) being a terrific choice. Stellar job all around! Love the DB4 and I have the Monogram release I built in the 70’s on my bench for an upcoming refurbishing. I only hope mine comes out half as nicely as yours. Edited February 4, 2022 by Steve Geer bad grammar 1
Funkychiken Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 Looks amazing, and great colour combo for the interior and body.. 1
1959scudetto Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 Very nice build, James - gives me an idea what to do with mine (I just disassembled my old glue-bomb) - will turn it also into a club racer or historic racecar.
