Jantrix Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 Here's a father-son project................ sorta. Last year I inherited about 30 kits. I was so jazzed and wanted to dive right in on em. The problem? My old projects that were on the shelf silently berating my lack of stick-to-it-iveness. The answer? Give the old projects to my 17 year old son Will! Brilliant! Yep and it worked out great. Here he's taken a Revell 32 3-window that I had painted three times before settling on the suede blue and then left to sit. He did some very unusual foil work and turned it into something very original. Pretty cool huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Cullinan Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 I like it. I've always felt the deuce needs some chrome trim. I notice most builds the hinges aren't even chrome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jantrix Posted August 26, 2010 Author Share Posted August 26, 2010 I recently got a huge of box of kits and diecasts from my uncle. The diecasts were in seriously bad shape so I parted them out. I'm not sure which one they came from. So...................I've no idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
