RatRod Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 Here's my first build of the Slingster kit. Kudos to Revell for bringing this kit back to life in 1/25!!! A few resin bits, some detailing, scratch built brakes (that nobody will ever see.. ) little details, and working steering. I kept the body markings simple (for the moment), but I may add something along the line of 'Hot Tamale' the name of the fingernail polish the body is painted, who knows? I also used a set of Halibrand kidney bean wheels, and M&H tires from a Tony Nancy kit, I personally think the Slingster tires are way to small. On with the show....
Old Nasty Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 Very nice. I'm building the same kit along a similar theme. I agree about the size of the slicks. I'm thinking about using the wheels & tires from the Garlits Wynn's Jammer kit but it will require opening up the wheel wells a little bit. Did you have to do the same?
bondo bill Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 WOW love the build - got my kit have't had time to start it yet
crazyjim Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 I haven't started my yet and hope it comes out half as good as your SHINY :) example.
Daddyfink Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 Wow! This shows the incredible potential of this kit. Great build!
DrKerry Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 Ok, I'm picking myself off the floor now. Very kool build. great looking too!!!!
Matt T. Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 Beautiful build! Great call on the wheels & slicks.
microboyca Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 Very cool,I'm going to have to get one of those kits to build next.
Ace-Garageguy Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 Great looking model, but the images look heavily processed to me. I'd like to see what she really looks like without the augmentation.
majel Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 Great looking build. Looks very clearly built!!
Pete L. Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 Great look...the rear wheel/tire combo look great on this car. Engine detailing and the steering front end are awesome !
Mooneyzs Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 John... Awesome work on this looks killer and is a very clean build. Nice job!
