Here is the first factory-type
car I've built in about ten years, a 1/25th scale Revell '06 Mustang GT.
My wife just loves the new Mustang and while I can't afford a new 1/1
scale version for her, I can afford a 1/25 scale model built to her specs. I added some flocking to the
interior (my first time using this stuff), a P/E CD that was cut in half
then adhered in the CD slot, and a hood scoop from another kit (Boss 429
kit). Some of the other modifications include lowering front
suspension to give her an aggressive stance, and add some louvers to the
small side windows and a center divider to the hood scoop. The body
is finished in eight coats of Tamyia Brilliant Orange and two high gloss
clear coats. The stripe decals on the upper surfaces came with
the kit, while the Mustang rocker panel stripes and body emblems are from
a Keith Marks Mustang decal set. Final touches include tinting the
back window and headlight lenses, and making my own license plate (which
my wife resized and then printed out). A Ford photo-etched license plate
frame finishes off the plate.
Cheers,
Alby
