cobraman Posted November 3, 2022 Posted November 3, 2022 This kit is all Monogram . The instructions are the only difference from regular Monogram kit . This was going to be the Essex Wire car but even having 3 sets of decals and coating them they just did not work . So , I end up with a model that is not a replica of a actual race car . Painted with Tamiya Racing White and cleared with Duplicolor 1k clear . Decals just from my decal stash . 1
Jim B Posted November 3, 2022 Posted November 3, 2022 (edited) Great looking Cobra. Might have to look into one of these. It looks longer that the Fujimi kit. ? Edited November 3, 2022 by Jim B
cobraman Posted November 3, 2022 Author Posted November 3, 2022 Thanks Jim. It may be the racing windscreen that makes it look longer but it is not. The Monogram kit is better than the Fujimi IMO. 1
vamach1 Posted November 3, 2022 Posted November 3, 2022 Very nice Ray. I’ve seen a lot of “newer” Cobras done in a retro theme so this one is right on track.
cobraman Posted November 3, 2022 Author Posted November 3, 2022 Thank you Rex. I hope to start my Agoura 1/8 Cobra after Christmas. Since its already painted maybe it will go good !
PappyD340 Posted November 4, 2022 Posted November 4, 2022 That's a fine looking Cobra Ray, well done!
Pierre Rivard Posted November 4, 2022 Posted November 4, 2022 Nice build Ray, I love the color combo you have chosen. The Monogram kit looks like a good one vs the Sunny/Minicraft/Revell I recently built. So I guess you only have 44 more Cobras to build?
Gramps46 Posted November 4, 2022 Posted November 4, 2022 Sad to hear of your decal problems but your solution was a good idea. Looks very believable.
cobraman Posted November 4, 2022 Author Posted November 4, 2022 Thanks for the kind words guys, I appreciate them.
