2002p51 Posted November 19, 2014 Posted November 19, 2014 I guess I'm in a British car mood lately. Here's the Tamiya Morgan 4/4 Straight out of the box, paint is just Testors Model Master Clear Gloss over the kit plastic.
MBXPilot Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 Wow!! So it was molded in green and you just shot a clear coat over it? You could never tell. Looks great!

Snake45 Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 That's a great looking car and you've built a fine, fine model of it.
chunkypeanutbutter Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 And I was just reading a book on Mogs not two hours ago.
Dare1 Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 I, personally, wouldn't have painted it any other color anyway! Nice work!
GeeBee Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 Very nice build, you wouldn't know you hadn't painted it ....

Skip Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 Drew, That's beautiful! Did you do anything special to those wire wheels? Those have to be about the most realistic wire wheels Ive seen in scale. Your clear coated plastic is amazing, can't use a "Hot" Clear Coat and get away with that too many times I'd bet. Love going to the "All British Field Meets", there are a couple within an hour or three that the Mini Club I belong to attends as a club every year. Morgan is always well represented, from the vintage to nearly new what a beautiful car in full size too. Lotus is another Brit manufacturer that always has a lot of cars in it's group, especially the Sevens and variant spinn offs. Good place to get fret reference pictures for British cars, they're held all over he US even UK!
