Revell '49 Merc

[fatkidd]

I recently (last night) put this one in "on the workbench"

I know these have been done quite a bit.

Here's a little different take on it.

Built box stock, except for plug wires and thread for the piping on the seats were added.

Color is HOK Orion Silver B/C with HOK Cobalt Kandy

Frame/chassis is the same color as the body...minus clear.

Engine is Tamiya Gold

Interior is Tamiya flat white with Tamiya flat blue inserts and silver thread for the piping (from walmart)

Carbs are Cobalt Kandy directly over the chrome.

thanks for looking and I hope that you enjoy the pics.

Very cool- I especially like the use of thread for the piping on the upholstery!

Good looking build. That silver thread must have been a pain to glue down.

Well done. That paint is slick, I like the sweep down onto the doors. Great colors. I've got one of these in the works myself. It's a pretty nice kit.

I have tried to build this model several times and never had one come out that good.

I like it, looks real good.

Perhaps I should try this one again.

Ohh now I can't wait to get mine finished . Excellent job, and the white walls really go great with the paint job, I hope that you have had a fun time building it as I am building mine (Custom).
