In progress - 06 "Eleanor" Mustang

Very early days as yet but as I can't do any spraying at he moment (for reasons I won't bore you with) I decided to have a go at replicating the Cervini C500 as closely as I can.

So far the front bumper & side scoops have been built up from plastic sheet & Tamiya Epoxy Putty.
Looks like being a long project as that only leaves the hood scoop, rear spoiler, side & rear skirts to do ! - I'll post more progress as I make it.
Thanks for looking.
Andy

They're Mirage P/E rims from Mr.Model in Brazil - I happened to buy a set recently without having any idea which kit to use them on then the Mustang kits arrived and as luck would have it they're a fairly close match to the ones on the 1:1.

They're just 4 pieces of sheet styrene - I made a base plate just a bit bigger than the window opening and then glued it over the window - then it was a case of adding the sides and finally the top. I made the top a bit bigger than required and then sanded it to fit the side pieces.

Cheers

Managed to do a bit more last night - I've added the hood scoop & also the indentation to the side window scoop.


Thanks for looking
Andy
