Re: In Progress: 1967 Plymoth GTX
your work is so flawless!
are those scratch built engine dress ups? If not, where do you get your supplies because I would love to build an engine any where near good as that one.

Re: In Progress: 1967 Plymoth GTX
Thank you very much!
The engine detail is scratch built using extra pieces from various places. The larger tube at the base of the sparkplug wires is from a 12 scale motorcycle kit. The Black wires are Model Factory Hiro purchased from www.1999.co.jp. The rest is very fine solder painted various colors. Wire clamps (you really cannot see in the pictures) are foil tape cut very very thin and painted flat black. They should actually be gloss but I wanted some separation in color to make them visible. Biggest part of success here was the reference pictures that can be found in the diary on my website www.racedaymodels.com The body has been primed and interior started. More updates will be coming soon. Chris |

Re: In Progress: 1967 Plymoth GTX
Update:
Body was primed, bare metal foil placed over the emblems. The car was then painted metalic green. The emblems were then lightly sanded to take off the top layer of paint, exposing the bare metal foil. Never tried this before but i'm pleased with how it turned out. The engine was test fitted again following this stage. What color do you use for the panel lines on something this dark? Suggestions are needed! Enjoy. |
