Revell 1/24 Shelby Cobra 427 S/C with some detail ups

[cjmin75]

Hi guys!
I just finished Revell Shelby cobra with some detail master detail parts.
It'm my first posting on AF.
Any comments or constructive criticisms will be welcomed.
Thank you for looking!

From what I can see (we could use some slightly bigger pictures) it looks absolutely superb, the finish is flawless and the overall look is great. Welcome to the forum!

The paint job is amazing!!
i love the color, the decal used for the front of the car
has a different green color, but i can not see if you had that problem
did you use only the white line?

Cheers

Dear Sylvia, I replaced pictures with the bigger size, enjoy them!

Very nice. What color is that?

[cjmin75]

The paint used for this model is HOK Emerald green. Yes, I removed the green part of the decal and used only white line. Thank you for your comment!

what did you use to simulate the carpet?
is it flock?

Nice work, welcome to A/F

I recently built the same basic kit (but a different livery) for an issue of "Fine Scale Modeler". Reminds me...I never posted it here. The one you built was an SCCA racer. The steering wheel is very nice, how difficult was it to get together?

Dear Aldo,
Yes, it was flocked with gray flocking material from detail master... thank you for your interest in my model!

Excellent result, you have made a great job of it! The paintwork is superb and the extra details you have added really add to the realism!

Very nice work. That kit really is nice, and not that expensive either. Great looking paint.

Beautiful and inspireing work!

I'm sure many of us here are wanting to know about that Daytona in the last couple of pics. Can you tell us a bit about it?

Sure, the kit is 1/24 SHELBY COBRA DAYTONA COUPE by SCALES MOTOR SPORTS (a.k.a. SMS). although it doesn't include engine, the kit is a great value for its price. I replaced the original exaust parts with K&S aluminum tubing and painted the body with Gunze super metalic+Gunze Clear blue.
