Shelby 427 Cobra **PICS**

Hi

Here is some pictures of a "test" models.
It's the Revell Shelby 427 Cobra. I missed the paint job at first (Yellow pearl) then I waited 3 months before repaint it. It was fine except the hood, that still react after 3 months

Paint is Mica Blue over black base.
Decals clearcoated.
SMS CF Hood (couldn't get a good looking paint on it)

You can see more pictures on my Web gallery under racing Cars section.

Re: Shelby 427 Cobra **PICS**

btw I just saw on the picture, the blue thing on the front is a reflect / shadow. I looked closely and it's not a paint problem. Look kinda weird on pictures. It’s too glossy

With spare CF that I have left yes. It doesn't look as good as the top. (didn't want to use CF for something we won't see)

It's SMS 1424 Plain Weave Pewter (which is darker than the normal CF)

Re: Shelby 427 Cobra **PICS**

Beautiful work!
How much of a difference does it make to the finish using a black base?

it is a bit darker. I only did 2 mist coat of blue then clear coat. The black really affect the paint. Just imagine something between Mica Blue and Telephonica Blue. lighter than Telephonica, but darker than Mica.
