happy grumpy Posted March 3 Posted March 3 Built this one a while ago when it was re-issued. Typical Revell kit. Goes together well I don't remember having any major issues, painted Tamiya metallic blue, interior coral blue. I totally messed up the wheel arch trim, (getting old sucks). But overall, I'm satisfied. Not my best work but it looks good on the shelve though. Thanks for looking. 24 2
Falcon Ranchero Posted March 3 Posted March 3 Looks real good; no sweat about the wheel opening trim, I'm pretty young myself and sometimes have a hard time with those too.
Matt T. Posted March 3 Posted March 3 Wow! Between your build quality, the background, and your photography skills, this looks like a 1:1 car. Beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Kah puts Posted March 4 Posted March 4 Come on, that ain’t no model, where’s the model, this site is just for models 👍
Mike 1017 Posted March 4 Posted March 4 I LUV IT. I have given up using BMF. Depending on which car I want to detail. I will just tape it off and airbrush it with Molotow Chrome
Lobo2me Posted March 4 Posted March 4 It looks super. I understand about those pesky wheel arches and trying to get BMF to behave. I usually hit them from the underside with the felt-tip end of a Molotow pen. Still, a great job and excellent photography. Well done!
SpikeSchumacher Posted March 4 Posted March 4 Wheel arches are my downfall as well. Maybe that's why I haven't built any cars with them lately...🤣. Beautiful color, and nice presentation as always!
TooOld Posted March 4 Posted March 4 Well done Mario , I really really like that color ! As for the wheel arches . . . we all have similar problems , I also don't have the patience I used to have .
Jim Dodson Posted March 4 Posted March 4 love the weathering effects on the exhaust pipes/mufflers! Well done!

ea0863 Posted March 7 Posted March 7 Looks like a total beauty to me! I personally find that as long as my skills diminish a little slower than my eyesight, then I'm okay 1
STU111 Posted March 7 Posted March 7 (edited) G’day Mario, nice work.👍🏻Beautiful paint. I can’t bmf wheel arch’s, these days I do them with a beveled edge chrome marker. These 70 Torinos, from the rear, side view remind me of the Aussie XA GT Ford Falcon coupe. Edited March 7 by STU111 1
Zippi Posted March 7 Posted March 7 Great looking 70 Torino Cobra there Mario. The Metallic Blue really pops against the Black. Yeah, your back drops always look pretty kewl to me. 1
