Aeroteto Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 Hey all !! This is my first post in this forum, so I wish to show you my second model car build. I only build two cars ever, and I´m still learning, usually build 1/48 aircaft, but I love cars too. This model is the old AMT 1/25 General Lee dodge Charger. It´s painted with dupont urethane, not polished. It´s my second car so be gently, hahaha no; please tell me all faults you can see so I can learn, thanks in advance!!
towman1271 Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 Looks great... The paint looks wonderful...I just completed that same kit myself out of the box..
george 53 Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 WOW! Really nice an shiney!!! Jim's gona LOVE this one!
GeeBee Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 That's one tidy model and the paintwork looks real shiney .....very nice work !
Scuderia Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 Very well done and nice work on the wheels, they can be tricky to get down right. Good stuff.
Badluck 13 Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 ......You only built two cars?!?!?!?!?,Heck my 100th didn't even come close as nice as yours!!!.,.very nice Hector,very nice...
Aeroteto Posted November 2, 2012 Author Posted November 2, 2012 Thank you guys! Yes it´s my second model car, the first one was a Monogram 1/24 Heavy Chevy 70 Chevelle, I love that kit. It´s my second model car but I´ve build over twenty 1/48 Aircraft. Now I´m building a 37 Ford and have a lot of questions, because the body assembly is too different to the Chevelle and the Charger.
slusher Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 Really good looking build. Really nice paint ...
Marcus M. Jones Posted November 3, 2012 Posted November 3, 2012 (edited) problem - you used the AMT Charger. Revell's would be so much nicer turned into the General. if a builder truely want to get better at building models you really need to be your own worst critic. from what i can see you did a wonderful job Edited November 3, 2012 by Marcus M.

dimebolt Posted November 5, 2012 Posted November 5, 2012 It does look really good man. You did a great job. Corey
kratvmnd Posted November 5, 2012 Posted November 5, 2012 Nice job! You chose a car that's not all that different from an airplane though, as it did spend a lot of time in the air!
crowe-t Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 Hector, Very nice build and the paint looks great! I also like that you didn't use the roll cage that came with the kit and built the loop style roll bar that most of the General Lees had on screen. Mike.
The Modeling Hermit Posted November 6, 2012 Posted November 6, 2012 That is impressive for only your second model.
