Terry Jessee Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 These are both Monogram Deuce roadsters. The first one was inspired by a car I saw in American Rodder years ago. The primer reacted with the plastic on this yellow plastic kit and produced a really cool, mottled primer effect--like the primer was old and weathered. So I kept that happy accident. The second one was an attempt at as nearly perfect a black paint job as I could get. It's not perfect, but it's one of the best paint jobs I've ever been able to pull off. This one is done as kind of a late '50s, early '60s LA Roadster-style car. I found a neat air cleaner housing in my parts box that looks like an Olds or Cadillac, so used that. I had a lot of fun with the skull shifter on this, too. Terry
Greg Cullinan Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 Terry you must've read my mind .My next builds are the Revell special edition 32's(sedan and coupe)as twins though . Anyways yours look great.I really dig the ragtop.And the black looks very smooth.
my name is nobody Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 Nice Roadsters. I'm a coupe man myself, but these are way cool. I really like the little black one. Beautiful Models.
