1/8 Rat Rod

Hello this is my first completed model here on this forum.

Its the `32 Deuce from Revell with some smal modifications :grinno:

I have channeld and lowered the body and grill, replaced the wheels with steel rims and made a new interiour and seats.

What a masterpiece, one of the most realistic models ever. I'm amazed by the attention to detail and the weathering. To me it looks like the rear tire is even low on air. Nice added touches to the interior too. I really am impressed with this.

Great job on the weathering. I really like the mexican blanket seat covers....so cool. I agree the rear tire does look low on air. Awesome work. How about a tutorial on the weathering if you dont mind?

yea
it is a nice weathered car and i love it very much especially those seats !
remind me of towels ;)

Ron, you are quite a talented builder. Your weathering and rust are extremely realistic. Job well done. I feel like if I took it apart some sort of wild creature would fly out of it.

This is an amazing build - congratulations :thumbsup:

What's next?

Thank you all for the comments on this build.

About a tutorial, there is small one in the Muscle/hot rod section but I will be made a new one whats explain some techniks a litle more.

Happy hollidays

That is amazing, especially the weathering. With a realistic background, I'd never believe that this was a model!!!!
