Modelbuilder Mark Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 I'll have more pictures loaded up tomorrow at my gallery page, along with build pics http://www.modelcars...lery&image=5685 but for now, this one is done! Happy Easter!
crazyrichard Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 awsome result , just great between the stance , axle in front , the pipes , roof and ... just really cool i made a slight remark aout the front wheels just a minute ago in on the workbench , could be easy to do still .. just read it there loving it
TooOld Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 Cool looking build . I like the Red Baron radiator and wheels, and the detailed 427 engine !
CrazyGirl Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 way way cool build , and where did that engine come from ?? i would buy the kit just for the engine
lazlow Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 that is sweet, It has that rat feel and atattooed with out a need for a tetanus shot. I would love to have a 1/1 of this.
Bernard Kron Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 Very nice indeed! Great stance and chop, precisely turned out and nicely conceived. Big thumbzupz! ...It has that rat feel and atattooed with out a need for a tetanus shot. ... Well put! Gotta agree. Gorgeous shiny red has plenty of attitude without the now rather trite rust and dust!
slusher Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 A super cool build and l love the stance and theme...
RatRod Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 I like it too!!! Not being a fan of modern rat rods, this one has a great feel to it. Nice way to mix parts, and come up with something really clever.
Modelbuilder Mark Posted March 31, 2013 Author Posted March 31, 2013 (edited) Thanks everyone! I really appreciate the feedback. I tried to make something that is not just super shiney, car show trailer queen only, etc. I wanted something that a person could actually drive and live with on the weekends. So, there is not that much clear on the paint, and actually I buggered it up a couple little places in the paint, but decided to leave them. (IE:cleaning a brush, a flick of laq thinner hit the back and spotted it, rookie mistake for sure) Thought about turning that into a couple bullet holes, but decided to just touch it up instead. Honestly tho, it does feel good that others are responding so well to it. Edited March 31, 2013 by Modelbuilder Mark
Ace-Garageguy Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 (edited) Looks great completed. I like your unusual engine choice, and especially the finish work on your chop. It's good to see one done where you can't see the seams and all the lines actually line up. Very nice work. Edited March 31, 2013 by Ace-Garageguy
Nitro330 Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 Way cool! Love the stance and tire/wheel combo, great job!

I do not put my self at all in the same class as many great builders on this forum, but I do try to take my time and make the work look as realist as possible. A huge pet peeve of mine is seems, and mold lines. I try really hard to make them go away! Thanks Terry! Edited March 31, 2013 by Modelbuilder Mark
