[StolenSol93]

Well I am about to do my first model here, Takin my time gonna try and do it right. I bought a Revell Ford Focus SVT the 2in1. I didnt want the supra or eclipse from fast and furious so I got this. Idk what color its gonna be yet but imma wait till I buy a airbrush 2 do it up. Um Plans so far include chop top if I can get it right, lambo doors, and lowered.

I am lookin for a s-10 model next. but Ill post pics up when I get a chance...

well heres the start I did the motor, went and did a little detail like the oil cap and the gears on the timing belt all silver... I also changed the valve cover from silver to a green as well as the bell housing, looks better, they were supposed to be silver, and the oil pan is black no longer silver...

Doesn't look bad so far, did you paint anything other than the green on the valve cover and transmission and the detail painting? Also, just a suggestion, but if it's your first model, a chopped top and lambo doors might be a little ambitious.

I painted the block the headers the heat shield the ehxuast the black thing over the valve cover, the belt, the axels, and the intake manifold...

Yea but I wanna try it, why not go all out... lol

imma wait till I find a decent airbrush to paint the body and chassis...

I agree, especially since I have a focus, and I am a little worried about how this might come out. Not saying you dont have the talent to pull it off, just that you should take it easy, and get into the hobby slowly, then naturally progress, as you will see when you are experimenting, some things work better than others. Also I love foci
