Wessex Wreck - Finished 22nd April

[406 Silverado]

Really love how this is looking.The weathering and faded paint really sets the scene here.

[Leon]

Have to agree with the fellas Steve ,stunning work

Hey Steve, outstanding work buddy! Man that looks sweet.

I agree with Gary, that's outstanding. All it needs are the small details like wirings and cables, oil leaks and other stuff that will make it perfect

Thanks Boss glad you like her  , I found the oils quite hard work.. Have to invest in some AK 

Leon, Gary, thank you friends    It's taking far more time than I though, mostly due to the slow drying oil paints 

Luigi, cheers buddy   To be honest I'm using it as a learning piece so I may not go overboard with the extra details, just the oil leaks and a bit more weathering maybe?

[TRM]

Looks sweet Steve!!! Definately top notch work there!! Looking forward to the ground work!!

[Deleted]

Thanks mrT,   She's been a challenge so far but that's how we learn 

hiya Mark, no problems buddy, MSC is so busy it's easy to miss an update or two

[deafpanzer]

Just caught up on this Steve, and I'm sad that I haven't had the pleasure of being along for the whole ride. This is looking wonderful.

[wouter]

Steve, like this mate, you sure managed to do the weathering properly, that's just great fading! Oil leaks and a bit more of weathering should do the trick I thinkg (but what do I know ey )

Sure will be a great endresult, no doubt

Cheers

Well she's finished !   but I can't seem to log into PB to upload the pics.  .. So no more from me until its working..


Virgin Media has been off line since 17:00 yesterday so maybe I've not a full service yet ?
anyhoo. Off to keep trying 

[Deleted]

Here we are then, I'm calling this one done  I really enjoyed it, as a learning experience and I'll use what I've learnt to build another, better, wingy wreck

You'll notice that the pictures are a bit off, the light outside was poor.. a surprise for the UK eh?  

anyway, until I've time to set up the indoor shoot here's a pic or two
