Mustang Mach III Concept

Here is my actual project.

The Car













The Model

I bought this model in a lot of junk kits.

































I put the side mirrors before painting.

Re: Mustang Mach III Concept

Here is a fast update. I did a pre-assembly to check if everything is on the right place.

Re: Mustang Mach III Concept

That is one good looking mustang!
I would work on the headlights a little bit...the lines on it seem very out of scale and makes the headlights not as clear as it should be. It would look better if you sand away those lines.

Hello guys!

Thanks for watching my project.

In the pre-assembly I didnīt take on place the part on the back of the headlight. I'll take another picture to show you.

Re: Mustang Mach III Concept

The side mirror fall off while sanding. I had to give up on this.



THE END.

Re: Mustang Mach III Concept

It looks an easy to recover job, why do you want to give up?!

Leave it aside, build another one and than get back to it.
IMO it's a very nice model of a beautiful car, it would be a shame not to finish it one day!

Most of the models I'm building now are older ones that were poorly built, and it's great to see them get a new life!

Re: Mustang Mach III Concept

Sucks to see distaster strike!! Next time try using the pin technique to put the mirrors on. Never tried it, but from others its awesome. Gives the mirrors more strength and its easier to glue without a mess.

Hopefully this build will get finished in the near future.
