Mr. Moparman Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 After a lot of elbow grease my Charger is finally done and is ready to head down the 1/25 scale turnpike. In my opinion, this is the best looking MPC Charger I have ever seen. I made the custom trim around the door scallops and the photoreductions. Enjoy!
Patrick2005 Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 A guy that lives near me has a Charger, unsure on the exact year but its painted that color purple with a white vinyl top. I think its a cool color for those cars.
Mr. Moparman Posted March 14, 2011 Author Posted March 14, 2011 Awesome work. Thanks! A guy that lives near me has a Charger, unsure on the exact year but its painted that color purple with a white vinyl top. I think its a cool color for those cars. Cool! Think you could PM me some pics of it?
george 53 Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 Well Brandon, considering what you started with, you DID do a GREAT job! Personally, with the Revell kit out an Missing Links 70 Charger conversion, I'da never bothered with this old kit. But you did one HECKAVA job with this tired old mold! The colors perfect and the 68/9/70 B-bodies, are my FAVORITE Chrysler styles!! GREAT JOB!!!

W-409 Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 These are getting better and better. Every model that you build, is better than the beformer one, great! Paintjob looks pretty good. Grille looks very good and engine is nice too. Here are couple of tips, how you can make the next one even better. Those Custom trims, you did, could be painted more carefully. Same thing is in the window trims. Bare Metal Foil is good stuff for doind chrome trims. Other way: Use masking tape. It will help you to get it look more realistic. Spark plug wires are bit too thick, but it's not mattering too much. It's great looking model anyway.
fisherdude5602 Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 I love the color. I like charger's this one is very cool. I's very cool
ChrisPflug Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 (edited) Nice results after really starting out at a disadvantage with this kit- your work seems to be getting better all the time Might be a few small issues, but if you nailed everything on a build it would pretty much kill the motivation to improve the next Edited March 14, 2011 by ChrisPflug
Swifster Posted December 11, 2011 Posted December 11, 2011 I keep waiting to see a '70 Mopar in Moulin Rouge...
