Completed: '49 Ford

Here is the AMT '49 Ford, finished it last night. Red-oxide primer, then painted satin black(theres a little shine). Rusted out a little. No motor, and the wheels are from the '31 Ford Tudor kit by Revell. I will be doing a how-to on weathering this week for those who asked. Enough said, heres my '49-

Thanks to all who show interest in my builds, I really enjoy bringing something new to the table!! Dennis

Damn! This is great stuff.. You´re becoming my inspirator:D I just picked up the ´29 Rat Rod kit from my LHS and I´m workin on this ´63 Impala wich is coming together in a very similar style as this `49

Woww, looks so cool :eek:
I like it :)

I especialy like the pinstripping on the trunk, I guess it's a decal but from which kit?
I don't always reply in your threads, but I do like what you do.

Very nice.

looks verry nice! damn you are fast on building models!

Cool! Though this is less like a rat rod and more like something that's been in someone's barn for years. Just stick a fore sale sign in the window.... Very cool though. I love this thing. The pinstriping is a beautiful touch

It's nice to see your bangers as a change from all shiny stuff around here, can't wait to see your tutorial. Keep it up, it's very refreshing work.

Niclas

Right on , cool old school!

looks good. is the brushwork on the trunk decal or did you paint it? can't wait for that tutorial

Damn'd, you're work rocks!! I've been watching this site for a while and still coming back to see your stuff!

Me and my brother like rod's a lot also, so maybe I can help you convinsing everyone that these cars are really worth making. Try to complete my Nomad by the end of the week!

Too cool ! you need to build a flat head for it :)

I see you accidently forgot to cover the rust, thats ok Dennis, I can fix that for you.

Looks good man!

Hmmmmmm only thing truly wrong with that build is the glass isn't cracked :). Great job man.

Nice weathering!

Awesome build!!!

All it need now is some dudes dressed in black suits and hats hanging out the windows with machine guns :grinyes:

I'd love to drive that one!!:sunglasse

That is really slick looking! Wheels, ride height, weathering, it is a change from all the showroom floor rides around here. Great job.

Thanks for the replies. I just did a tut on weathering so check it out and maybe it will help. I think it is great that you all dig my work!! The pinstriping on the trunk is a decal!! Thanks everybody for diggin' my work!! Dennis

Looks great. You should feather and blend the rust effect more. It looks a little to brushed on.

That looks good though.

I Love doing rust and weathering. So much so I made my own junkyard diorama. Feel free to check it out. If you have any questions, fire away.

Next time I got a little money to spend on some models I`m gonna try to make a parted out rusted out junk yard car . Them two were made to look like they were just in a wreck ...
