Wolfangel Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 This is my version of the Evil Iron Trike. This model has special meaning. When I was 5 or 6 years old....my mom helped me build this. This is the model that got me started building models......47 years ago. I had to get it when it was reissued. I did change a few things. I cut the exhaust apart.....reconfigured it to the way I wanted.....glued it all back together and smoothed all the cut seams and sprayed them with Revell chrome. I also made the exhaust supports coming off of the frame. I wanted a hot rod style vibe. I then added a strip of plastic above the skull to bring it out further to be more like a cloak. The rest is pretty much the way it should be with a few touches of clear red on some engine parts. The black at the top is a combination of paint and modified kit decals. I painted it Tamiya bright mica red with pearl clear then 4 coats of normal clear over that. I really like how this came out. And it looks really good sitting next to the Tom Daniels King Chopper trike. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nacho Z Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 This is very timely, Marcus, I just posted my WIP of this kit a little bit ago. I can only hope mine turns out half as nice as yours! I really like the extra touches that you added to yours. Very cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
