johnbuzzed Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 Smooth, clean and shiny. Really, really nice build and photography. Makes me want to build something box-stock again.
crazyrichard Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 pffft and a nother perfect shiny build , just stunning !!!
Skydime Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Super sharp! I hadn't seen this one yet. Great work and awesome color! I really like that color against that silver dust pan behind the front bumper.
tubbs Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 what more can I say, each build is just terrific.
Lovefordgalaxie Posted February 12, 2014 Author Posted February 12, 2014 Thanks again gentlemen. I don't know how to thank you enough for the kind of kind comments you guys posted here. Very, very appreciated.
David G. Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 Great paint work, excellent color, clean build. Fantastic work! David G.
stumay309 Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 Nice car and a beautiful build really like this one
Grumpa Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 Good Lord Tulio......your craftsmanship is flawless!
Lovefordgalaxie Posted March 5, 2014 Author Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) At first I tried to wash the panel lines with a very dark version of the body color. It wasn't much realistic. Then I had the idea of washing the body color over that, and now it's a lot better. I'll do this on my next builds with automotive paint. 1957 Ford Custom Tudor by Lovefordgalaxie, on Flickr 1957 Ford Custom Tudor by Lovefordgalaxie, on Flickr 1957 Ford Custom Tudor by Lovefordgalaxie, on Flickr 1957 Ford Custom Tudor by Lovefordgalaxie, on Flickr 1957 Ford Custom Tudor by Lovefordgalaxie, on Flickr Edited March 5, 2014 by Lovefordgalaxie
peekay Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 Seems I forgot to comment on this but I can only agree with everybody - absolutely beautiful!!!
Helix Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 That is so cool Tulio, might just have to drag my AMT 57 Ford out of the cupboard and build it !
rmvw guy Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 I am becoming a really big fan of yours Tulio. (Wish i could figure how to get the little accent mark over the "u" in Tulio out of respect for you.). The panel lines increase the realism of your model immensely. I also enjoyed the video and love your taste in music on it, very much goes with the car. I can't wait to see what you show us next.
charlie8575 Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 How'd I miss this? Another winner, Tulio. Charlie Larkin
jkill54 Posted March 8, 2014 Posted March 8, 2014 That is the most realistic model I have seen! Great photos too.
Lovefordgalaxie Posted March 8, 2014 Author Posted March 8, 2014 Thanks a lot guys. You won't believe this, but after all that fuss I removed the paint on the washes and the car is now just like she was when I first built her. Why? Believe me or not I, and it's a ME thing, was thinking the wash made the Ford to look modely, to copy a word Harry used. It improves the realism on pictures, but with the car on hand it's just very artificial looking. The Revell kit has very superficial panel lines on the trunk, and on the front of the doors. The wash gets too much on the surface, and even being on a correct color it looks as bad as a black wash. I think that the way Marcos Cruz posted is the best, if not the only to produce a realistic panel line, and I will try it... On a '57 Ford, of course!!!
