KWT Posted October 15, 2022 Posted October 15, 2022 (edited) Decided to try and knock out a Halloween build... and add to my star cars... I don't know if I'll get her done by Halloween or not. Got the body sprayed with Tamiya Bright Red and Pure White... Now to try and tape her off and spray some silver... fingers crossed Edited October 30, 2022 by KWT update title 1
Slotto Posted October 15, 2022 Posted October 15, 2022 Looking good. Everybody should have a Christine

slusher Posted October 17, 2022 Posted October 17, 2022 I agree, I have one but haven’t started it yet!

KWT Posted October 22, 2022 Author Posted October 22, 2022 Very little time for models during the week... but I did get the chassis/interior put together. I'm going with the blacked out windows, so not much detail to be involved here... and it's hard to tell from the photos, but I got some black on some of the chrome goodies Hoping to get some more done on her tomorrow before the weekend festivities start... Stay tuned... 1
iamsuperdan Posted October 22, 2022 Posted October 22, 2022 My all time fav movie. But the book is better. I have a handful of these kits, two currently started. One movie accurate Christine, one not so much. Looking forward to seeing yours all wrapped up.
KWT Posted October 22, 2022 Author Posted October 22, 2022 Well after 2 hours of taping, a 5 minute spray job, and 10 mins of tape removal... 4
slusher Posted October 23, 2022 Posted October 23, 2022 Looks great! I didn’t enjoy the tape time myself. What tape do you use.?
David G. Posted October 23, 2022 Posted October 23, 2022 Excellent masking work! Everything looks great so far. David G.

KWT Posted October 30, 2022 Author Posted October 30, 2022 Well... I had a bit of a mishap with the side glass. Got most of the glue off them.. most... but regardless, just in time for Halloween, she's done. Still have to get some decent photos before I post under glass. As always, thanks for looking... 2
Slotto Posted October 30, 2022 Posted October 30, 2022 Nice! Congrats for finishing on time! What did you use to darken the glass?
KWT Posted October 30, 2022 Author Posted October 30, 2022 Thanks man! With work going the way it has I didn't think it would happen. I cheated and sprayed the inside with flat black. 1
customline Posted November 1, 2022 Posted November 1, 2022 I have the non-evil version of the movie star in her box, waiting to queue-in. I hope mine turns out as nice as your's did. As much as I love the red/white scheme on the '58 Plymouth, I will likely do something else. Maybe downgrade to a Savoy. Anyway, congrats! Great looking MoPuppy!
KWT Posted November 1, 2022 Author Posted November 1, 2022 Thanks guys! I do appreciate it... she's heading under glass right now (got some outside shots) 19 hours ago, customline said: I have the non-evil version of the movie star in her box, waiting to queue-in.

It's the stupid bumper "wings" where the work is. The result is a cleaner look (in my humble opinion) more suitable for a mild custom or a resto-mod like the ones pictured below. By the way, sorry for the untimely reply.
KWT Posted November 12, 2022 Author Posted November 12, 2022 Ah that's cool.. That black one is really sharp
mustang1989 Posted November 13, 2022 Posted November 13, 2022 Oh HECK yeah!!! Great finish on this one Jeremy!! I haven't tackled one of these kits yet but every time one is built up, I get the itch to try one. Good turn out buddy.
