Airfix 1/12 scale Bentley Super 8
Dear All,
This is another model which I built a few years ago that was also sold to my boss. Hope you guys enjoy it!        Not an easy built as the quality of molding was really bad and lots of cleaning up to do.

Re: Airfix 1/12 scale Bentley Super 8
Absolutely gorgious! I love the paint work, especially the different look in textures (gas tank, roof cover, etc...). Did you hand polish the paint? If you did, it must of been tricky not to avoid damage over the loovered vents.
Great work! Cheers, Rick

Wonderful job!! :drool:
What did you use for the metal radiator housing? It looks VERY realistic.

Re: Airfix 1/12 scale Bentley Super 8
rickkerzipper,
This car was hand polishes with different grit of polish thus giving it the looks. Robex, Sometimes it is a good change to built some classics. I fine it relaxing in a different point of view. Gionic, Yeah! Feels a little better then that when you had finally completed it and place it on a nice frame. I remembered when I had completed it and had it in the custom made frame. I just sat there for alomost an hour with my cigar and a glass of wine staring at it in different light angle. lechatnoir82 & ales, Thanks man! I can't really remember but I think it was Mr Hobby British Racing Green. Thanks once again for viewing and comments
