It's finally completed. It was a bit of a challenge, when you see pristine paint it's difficult to get your mind around the fact that you're going to Intentionally sand trough it to another layer. Thank you to everyone for your encouragement through this build, especially to Jon Ferrer over on TRaK. Without Jon's advice I doubt the build would be anything but another stalled project. Without further ado here is "The Rust Bucket": I wanted the interior to have character like the exterior. The seats and door panels were painted with Krylon Make it Suede to give them some texture. Then pieces of tape were cut to size to give the look of torn seats being held together with duct tape. The engine bay ended up with the Flat Head from the Revell Good Guys '40 Ford Coupe. The speed parts were used for the build with additional pieces from Parts by Parks, Detail Master, Model Car Garage and my favorite source for Flat Head parts Replica and Miniatures Company of Maryland. Hosted on FotkiFor the first attempt at weathering I am pleased with the results, but figure there are things that would make it even better. Your questions and comments are welcome as always.
