peekay Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 (edited) Finally got round to taking a few pics to post. Having trouble getting real sharp focus but I'm working on it and thought these results could be shown. I did this Monogram Lincoln quite a few years ago, curbside and with no research into colours etc. Painted with automotive base and clear coats, detailed with Humbrol. Thurs.12th Just added an interior shot and one with the up top. Hosted on Fotki Hosted on Fotki Hosted on Fotki Hosted on Fotki Hosted on Fotki Edited August 9, 2017 by peekay
buffalobill Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 Beautiful build! It's good to see someone take the time to do justice to this kit. What color/brand of paint did you use on the exterior?
Ace-Garageguy Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 Beautiful build! It's good to see someone take the time to do justice to this kit. What color/brand of paint did you use on the exterior? My thoughts exactly.
Eshaver Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 You can always e-mail the Early Ford Club of America on these cars . The club recognizes any Ford, Mercury , or Lincoln from 1932- 1953 . We recognize all Flathead sixes , eights and of course the Lincoln 12 cylinder ............. The brown would have been correct . The blue conceivably could have been done at a dealer shop ................
TooOld Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 Nicely done ! The small details are excellent !
peekay Posted September 11, 2013 Author Posted September 11, 2013 Thanks guys. Yes it's a great old kit, compares well to anything today. Paint is my own colour mix using Standox automotive base and clearcoat. I'm afraid I'm not overly fussy about factory-correct colours.
sjordan2 Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 Great job. Any interior or engine shots?
Foxer Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 That's cleanly done for a cantankerous old kit! That color really makes it!
Harry P. Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 Great job. Any interior or engine shots? It's built as a curbside.
peter31a Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 Beautiful build of that Lincoln kit. Whether original Lincoln colour or not that shade certainly looks period appropriate.. Very, very nice.
realgone58 Posted September 12, 2013 Posted September 12, 2013 Nice to see one of these built in a color other than black, maroon or cream. This looks fantastic! Beautiful paint.
Joker Posted September 12, 2013 Posted September 12, 2013 Factory stock with a lot of custom looking touches.. I see with my little eye... i.e. deleted running boards...pan cake hood section body( raised fenders) and of course the push button on the door. Gorgeous Lincoln btw
peekay Posted September 12, 2013 Author Posted September 12, 2013 Thanks so much for all your comments, it means a lot to me.I'll see if I can do some decent interior shots today.
