davyou5 Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 For the most part it is complete, I am now awaiting the Cement to dry before I try Polishing/Waxing. I have a few issues with the engine, the Air Cleaner is now off of the engine because it is sitting too high and the hood can not sit properly, I have taken a picture of the Engine before that, but I ended up gluing the hood on for the rest of the shots. Also the front end is sitting high, I don't know the reason for this, but I am hoping that gravity will correct that problem. Other than all of this it doesn't look bad , it's much better than my last build. Specs, Model/Make: Revell 2 n 1 '68 Charger Skill level 3 Paint/Color: Exterior: Was Testor's Flame Black, Now Model Master's Black, and about four coats of Clear, Engine color Testor's Tropical Aqua - Interior: MM Black and Testor's Red, Testor's Brown and Chrome for Steering wheel and Dash. Status: Completed, awaiting Cement to dry. Engine Shot before Air Cleaner was taken off. Well It's the best model I have done thus far, when every thing is dry I will post a few more pictures after waxing/polishing. It is also my first time using the Chrome BMF, My very first try with BMF was on the Nova SS with the Black Chrome. I know the rear looks kind of crappy with the BMF but I am in the learning process . Thanks for looking.
my name is nobody Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 very nice. I like the '68 Charger. this looks very similar to a '69 Charger I built. same paint scheme. Black with a red bumblebee stripe. Your '68 Looks pretty nice.
Fisher61 Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 That tail panel is very tough to BMF! I used a fine black sharpie marker around the tail light on mine. Your build looks very nice!

Black with a red bumblebee stripe. Your '68 Looks pretty nice. Allright now we can both show off the cars of a similiar Scheme just different Years . Thanks. That tail panel is very tough to BMF! I used a fine black sharpie marker around the tail light on mine. Your build looks very nice! OMG was it ever tough! . I will have to think about buying myself a Fine Sharpie. Thanks. And to every one else thanks, I could not have done it without the inspiration and thoughful words of motivation. Though still not perfect or Contest Quality, to me it is close enough. Thanks again. . As I stated above I am waiting for the Cement to dry on the rest of the parts, then I will be waxing, I will post better pictures then. Though in the Future I may want to build another like the one on the Bullit Film, I just need to find the Hubs. Edited October 20, 2010 by davyou5
