Completed Build: 1935 Mercedes Benz 500K Cabriolet, 1:25 scale kit by Jo-Han

Hi,

Your build looks great

Wow that's a nice build of a beautiful car.  How was the kit?

Sweet!

I remember that classic kit, and your modeling has really made it look super. 

I like the color choices for the interior and exterior too; and that paint work for the chrome strip, WOW! I first thought it was BMF.....

Great job!

Beautiful!

I have the Johan kit of the coupe version.  High up in my queue and it should go on the bench sometime this summer.

Thats the one that I used as well, I chopped the roof off and took the doors off. Its a nice kit. 

I wish Revell/Monogram, Italeri and Johan were still issuing classics.  However, they must have sold a bunch, as they are common at model flea markets.  All I have built have been very nice kits (all vendors).  I wonder, if ICM wraps up all variants of the Model T, if they will  do a few classics.  My next car build will be the ICM Model T Speedster I have in the stash.

Nice work, the red paint came out awesome ! Red can be difficult sometimes.

I've done tape door hinges in the past, also cloth strip hinges too. Sometimes it's just how it is. Truth be known my fabricated hinges of the day worked worse anyway !

Great work eye popping
