Modlbldr Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Beautiful car, Cruz. Congratulations on the cover car!! I have always loved the Mustangs of this year. As a matter of fact, this and the 70 Boss 429 were my first loves as a young kid. Classic body style. BTW- This is the Revellogram Special Edition kit? How did it go together? I'm still waiting to build my 2. Later- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruz Posted December 5, 2012 Author Share Posted December 5, 2012 Yes, this is the special edition and it goes together rather well.... http://www.fotki.com'>Hosted on Fotki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meaneyme Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Superb work Cruz, perfect car for a cover shot specially at the angle it was taken. Do you have any pictures of the engine before you placed it in the engine bay? Looks like you spent a lot of time detailing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruz Posted December 5, 2012 Author Share Posted December 5, 2012 Thanks Kevin, the engine is one of the biggest reasons I decided to put this one together. It's really cool looking when completed!! http://www.fotki.com'>Hosted on Fotki http://www.fotki.com'>Hosted on Fotki http://www.fotki.com'>Hosted on Fotki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cotto Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 What a cool looking model man, your paintwork never ceases to amaze me as usual. What did you use for spark plug boots? They look so cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruz Posted December 5, 2012 Author Share Posted December 5, 2012 Thanks guys! The interior is rather simple, didn't do much there. For spark plug boots, I like to use hypodermic needles.

W-409 Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Stunning work as always from your bench. Nice paint job on it, and that engine looks excellent. What did you use for weathering? I'm using The Detailer, but it is bit too shiny in some point.... Otherwise it's fantastic stuff. Your Mustang looks excellent, can't say anything negative about it.

I like using Citadel paints for the washes on the engine and other parts, I also use a product called Rub and Buff, it's a silver pastelike product that highlights the high spots on the chassis and various parts of the engine. I also use pastels for the chassis to recreate a little bit of dirt and give the car sort of a slightly used look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
