Dragfreak Posted June 10, 2014 Author Posted June 10, 2014 Looking good. Nice color choice, and the stance is more appropriate for the car- not so '70's looking. Thanks, I'm quite a bit happier with the new stance from the mockup, hopefully nothing changes and it stays the same. I just bought some clear so expect a paint update with shiny stuff coming up.
Dragfreak Posted June 10, 2014 Author Posted June 10, 2014 I just got some clear on it, aaandd it fell off the paint stand on to the deck. The paint was mostly dry so there was almost no damage, just some battle scars but you don't see a drag car with perfect paint so who cares!
tubbs Posted June 10, 2014 Posted June 10, 2014 looking real good Jason. color goes real well with that body style (although I am partial to black cars). shaping up to be another nice build from you. keep them coming young man. you have me motivated to turn some of my pro street projects to drag cars.
1 bad55 stan Posted June 10, 2014 Posted June 10, 2014 that is looking sharp Jason,what polish do you use?the different is really noticeable.The rear tyres fill the wheel arches perfectly!
Sixx Posted June 10, 2014 Posted June 10, 2014 Dang Jason, that's freeking cool man!!!! I dig it big time! :-)

Dragfreak Posted June 13, 2014 Author Posted June 13, 2014 Beautiful color and paint Jason. Thank you Carl
Dragfreak Posted June 22, 2014 Author Posted June 22, 2014 I finally finished cutting and buffing the paint, I hate doing this with a passion but the results look fantastic!
1 bad55 stan Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 that is brilliant,it looks like it was worth the effort!
W-409 Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 That's a good looking paint job! I like the color too, fits very well on Mustang. I agree, I'm not a fan of polishing either, it's one of the most annoying things in model building. Anyway the results sure are nice just like this one.
Dragfreak Posted June 23, 2014 Author Posted June 23, 2014 Thanks everybody! Niko, I agree. I wish I could paint well enough for it to lay down perfect and nt need any major cutting and buffing, I'd love it if I could produce a paint job that just needed a little waxing.
Dragfreak Posted June 23, 2014 Author Posted June 23, 2014 polishing looks great.... Thank you Tyrone, I appreciate it
Dragfreak Posted June 23, 2014 Author Posted June 23, 2014 I was playing around with some left over window tint and I did the quarter window with it, what do you think? Should I do the rear and other side? The difference is amazing from the angle the sun hits the tint
freakshow12 Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 I have used tint on a few projects. I will share this though. The back window on this car is a bear to tint on the 1:1 and looks to be tough on the kit too
tyrone Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 I've always been a fan of clean, clear windows, on 1:1 cars and models too... so all the details are easy to see... you did a great job in coloring in the trim on the windows and tinting them... did you use the Sharpie????
Dragfreak Posted June 23, 2014 Author Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) Thank you Tyrone, I understand what you mean about clear windows, the detail you do on interiors is definatey something to show off. I'll try tinting the rear one, but if it doesn't work I'll scrap the idea. I used a brand new sharpie with a nice point on the tip. I carefully followed the dulled lines making about two coats.

Outlaw_Pitbull_0411 Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 (edited) I tint everything, tint the windows bro Edited June 24, 2014 by Outlaw_Pitbull_0411
