Omi1966 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 hi im new too the forum so i thought would post something i have just finished, not up to some of the standards you guys are setting on here but im pleased with the out come. thanks for looking. very few of the kits decals were used on this, it has a custom colour paint job with peralex added which really sparkles in the sun light. lots of bits added, ht leads all the chrome was stripped and replaced with alcad chrome, the stripe is finished in a satin finish, carpet is flocking sprayed dark sea grey and the standard seat belts made from tamiya tape and PE buckles. hope you like and thanks for looking.

cobraman Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Nice Cobra Martin. My favorite car by far. Put a little black in those side pipes, it will make them look more hollow. Just an idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dantewallace Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Very nice build and welcome!! I don't know why I continue to blow off building one of these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omi1966 Posted August 13, 2013 Author Share Posted August 13, 2013 thanks for all the compliments guys, the wood on the dash is just paint effect very easy to do with practice, as for the polishing i'm still learning the cobra has not been polished it is just klear gloss so im still very envious of the finishers i see on the forum, some day i might take the plunge with the polishes i have seen used on some of the finished models. thanks again. ill post some other pics of cars for your critical eye. martin.

Modelbuilder Mark Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Do not worry about "up to some of the standards you guys" or you will enjoy the hobby less. Build because you enjoy it, build what you like, have fun! But regardless, Looks really good, keep sharing those builds! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
