Revell 1/24 Mustang Mach1 1970.
Hello friends, taking advantage of the quarantine, I chose to assemble a kit from another subject which I like as much as aviation, in fact it is my job, muscle cars ... In this case a 1970 Mach 1 Mustang, which I was as faithful as possible details to the real car such as; engine color, transmission, undercarriage, oversprays etc ..., And of course, the body color, true orange grabber period correct automotive paint which requires enormous attention, as the risk of damaging to the kit is great, it does not accept errors in the surface preparation, otherwise the finish and shine are lost. Great care when painting, degreasing and keeping dust away is extremely necessary. In the end, several stages of sanding and final polishing with products from automotive line also ... Again extreme care not to overdo and removing the varnish due to excessive polishing. enjoy ... Plus, his cousing, Boss 302 on the background...
Excellent build and outstanding paint work!
This is a work of art Eduardo. Congratulations!
This is one of, if not the best, looking car model I have seen in a very long time. Just flawless work. True craftsmanship!
thanks Matt... Very hard, but pleasurable work...
matt built a pretty stunning 'bullitt' mustang about a year ago
My uncle Steve came home from Vietnam and bought one of these cars. I loved riding in it as a kid. Great build!
Great memories...
That's one of the best car models I have seen. Period. Very realistic result. Fantastic paintwork.
Thank you Tom.
Absolutely stunning. Did you paint the chrome around the windshield and windows? Looks terrific. I did not know those cars were 'unibody' construction. (see, you learn something new everyday here). Are you familiar with 'forced perspective'? Take some pics of you and your Mustangs on the street! Thanks for the effort and for sharing your artwork with us.
Thank you David, yes I paint the crome mouldings... Good idea, i will take some pics on "natural enviroment"...
Great model of probably the best American car ever.
Ha, Detroit iron at it's best. Nicely done.
Fantastic paint! What kit is it?
Hello Rick, it is a Revell, 2´n 1, can be built as a Boss or Mach1
Duh...it's in the title...too much glue this morning...Awesome build

Absolutely beautiful! One of my dream cars of my youth. Alas I never owned one.
Totally terrific! Best looking car model I’ve seen in awhile. Thanks for sharing!
