Dominik Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 One more today, becaus i have time this T-Bird was a bad try to remove paint. From the beginning. i wanted to make this old monogram kit with opening doors in a color like biscuit. I think, that i have always bad luck with red plastic. after more than three color layers, always red will come thru the paint. "What doing, little Dominik?" I ask my self. straight in a bath of oven cleaner to remove the paint and wait 24 hours, there was the result: in places departed paint down to the primer. Bad, bad result. so i took my gun and painted like van Gogh a rusty, old look. Some dust and paint for rust and - ready.Put some new wheels and windshields in, new licenceplates and up for it on the track. It is tooo heavy i think, looks like a old ship in the ship graveyard...but it was a experiment and has also a place in my showcase. What do you think about? ...

W-409 Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Really nice, that rust looks very realistic, I'd like to get that level too on weathering. I like the look with rusty body with clean wheels and tires. This one looks really good... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
