Dragonhawk1066 Posted Thursday at 11:26 PM Posted Thursday at 11:26 PM Here's my version of the AMT 1971 Dodge Charger R/T. It's painted in the new Kaleido Colorworks by Gaahleri Metallic Blue-Gray and cleared with the Kaleido Gloss Varnish. I then wet-sanded, polished, and waxed for the final finish. Bare Metal Foil was applied for the trim, then the decals. I cut the trunk open on this one as well and made hinges for it to stay open. The interior is painted in Kaleido Off White and I added embossing powder for the carpet. The wood grain was accomplished using brown and black craft paint. The engine is painted in Kaleido Yellow-Orange and the transmission in Kaleido Aluminum. I used the steel wheels and center caps from the Revell 1968 Dodge Charger R/T with the kit tires. This is a very nice kit with little to no flash and some nice molded in details. The fitment of the parts was excellent as well, and the decals were strong and applied nicely. I did add spark plug wires, door lock knobs, and valve stems for extra detail. As always, thanks for looking! 11
DJMar Posted Thursday at 11:37 PM Posted Thursday at 11:37 PM Sweet Mopar! I'm digging the color...and those boxes in the trunk. Such a clean build. Very nicely done.
