AMT '49 Mercury

[Brett Barrow]

So wonderfully perfect in every way.

I have GOT to make up one of those silicone tuck-and-roll molds...

And practice on all aspects of my modeling. Lots of practice. Then I'll get there!

Thanks for showing us how it's done. Inspiring stuff.

Fantastic interior. Where did get the purple plastic for the dash knobs? I really like them.

Sorry, I didn't answer your question earlier. The colored plastic is from Midwest Products. I found some at a local RC/hobby store, but many places online carry it. The white sheet I used is Evergreen.

Here's a link I found, but just do a seach on Midwest Products, & you may find a dealer in your area.

Thanks for the info, Steve. I'm guessing you just laminate the color and white pieces and then sand them to shape? The pieces look very cool.

Yes, I glue 1" x 1" squares together, slice them into thin strips & shape with files & polishing sticks.

That is the most amazing interior I have ever seen. Looks better than most real car interiors!

If you didn't know it was a model you'd swear it was real.

As usual awesome work so far. I really dig the knobs. I can't wait to see the finished model.
