FORD THUNDERBOLT

Looks pretty good. The foiling is great.

The foiling takes a great part of patience, all besides a new blade, cotton swabs and some music from A-HA

Paint job looks pretty clean

THIS IS MY SECOND CAR build, the paint job was done with humbrol 19, about 3 wet coats one week between each, i did use micromesh to wipe any flow, but the magic is in the polish compound, i did use SILICON GLAZE from AMWAY, it really works well, apliying it with an old tshirt and some circular movement, patience and watching the history channel

Nice work!
I remember very well when the "real" T-bolts [1:1 scale] hit the drag strips and started creaming all those 'other' brands! What a great time to be a young car guy!
I'm looking foward to seeing photos of the finished piece!

Added some wiring, and some FUTURE to the windshield, more bare metal, and chinese ink to add detail to the crhomes near the lights, some tamiya clear and humbrol clear fot the signal lights, i decided not to use any decal, but i think i doesn´t need them, enjoy







SOME FUTURE over the chrome to protect it, hope you like it

that looks awesome!! great detail!!

How did you use the chinese ink? I've wanted to make realistic grilles and such for years but never known how!

OK, for the chinese ink , here in Guatemala we use stylographics , or rapidoliner ( staedtler, rotring, fabercastell) to draw blueprints, it comes in reloadable stiles of dispossable, comes to in many points, .01 , .02, .03, .04 and thicker, in sets or singles

thi finer was used to add some shados inside the grilles, and arround the stop lights
, and more for the front frille, a little patience and a cd of A-ha, i the grille is too little you can use the chinese ink thinned in water ( enly water) and aplied with a fine pencil maybe a "0" and patience as you can see in this chevy 39 (not finished yet) like a wash and let it dry

awesome car...i wish i had one on real life.keep up the good work.
