The Creative Explorer Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 It is finally done! it took me a while, not that long actually, but I am quite happy with the result, it has that nice sleek look to it and although there are many points to improve, I am happy with the result.

Qwit Pushin Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 "bouse"? I had to google it, but here's the definition from 'Urbandictionary.com': "To be #1, the best. To be sick wit it. To be incredible." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nate Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Super smooth! I hope the 59 I'm planning to build (someday...) comes out half as nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry P. Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 I agree! Love the curb feelers! I don't think I've ever seen a model with them before. Too cool! Oh, and very nice job on the rest of the model! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixties Sam Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Excellent build of an iconic 50's car! Great finish and detailing. Curb feelers are a cool touch! Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Custom Mike Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Beautiful work Erik, the foil work looks flawless, the under-hood detail is nicely done, and the paint makes it stand out. Top-notch work sir! One question though, what did you use for the antennas and curb feelers, they look perfectly in scale! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANB Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I had to google it, but here's the definition from 'Urbandictionary.com': "To be #1, the best. To be sick wit it. To be incredible." Yeah, must be an Aus thing, popular word among car enthusiasts over here. But it suits this model to a T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Creative Explorer Posted February 19, 2012 Author Share Posted February 19, 2012 Thanks everybody! I am quite proud on this one too, all the bodywork was so much trouble, i couldn't get rid of the seemlines, but eventually managed to get it decent. And I just got me a bright moment with those curb-feelers, I don't know what triggered it, but I just wanted it. @Mike; they are made of thin needles, like acupuncture needles, they are ideal for this, very sharp too, so be careful.
