Model Master Del Aire

Well thanks guys, very much appreciated. Now as were moving house soon, I think I'll give model-making a rest.

Looks great Pat! 

Stay safe.

Gotta agree with John-fun project and it looks it.

That's pretty fun Pat!

Thanks guys, but it's far from my best..

Nicely done Pat-great job on the chrome trim.

Reminds me of the old Ed'Big Daddy' Roth t-shirts with auto caricatures from the 60's.

I need to add this kit to my 'search' list.

Interesting and fun project!

Nearly done as I've messed up in various places as it is 1/32 scale and my hands shake. I had to add a piece of plasticard to both front wheel openings as there was nothing but the thin resin floor to attach them to.

So to finish, just both front wheels and two flaming exhausts!

Cheers keavdog (John).

I think it looks great Pat - certainly has that over the top cartoon drawing hotrod look

Cheers Bob, I hope so! I'm going the swage lines along the sides with a chrome pen today, wish me luck!

Pat-looks good but I understand not being totally happy-I think with the tires & smoke it will give it a different look.

Although I've laid up a few decals today, I'm not totally happy..

Thanks guys, not having seen any images of this kit built I just chose one of my favourite colours.

Great start Pat-the yellow really pops!

Great yellow Pat!

25.01.24 First colour coat and sand/fill/undercoat/paint.

First bit of filler and undercoat..

Yes Bob, I don't know how creative I can be with rattle cans!

Looks like a fun project-lots of room for a creative paint job.

Thanks Jim, I'll keep up to date.

That's going to look great Pat. 

I used to drag race a '53 Chevy Bel Air Convertible with a '54 Chevy grill like the one in the model (without the top, hood scoop and large rear tire of course ). 

Stay safe.
