Global Scale Modeller

Here is my next project, I have been asked to strip and repaint a 1/8 scale Ford mustang diecast shell. It will be repainted in zero paints Candy Purple over a fine metallic silver, and will be finished with the stripes redone in silver.





Thanks

Cool project, I will follow along for sure

Can't wait to see how this turns out!

Body pieces have now dismantled so they are easier to work with and stripped of the original paint.



Other than a couple of little marks the metal body is in good condition so I can now move on to primer.

Here is the body now primed and ready for the first base coat of fine metallic silver.

The body has now been painted with zero paints fine metallic silver which is the base coat for the candy Purple which will follow next.

Here are all the pieces off the body that are now painted in the Candy Purple.



Still needs the clear coat to be added after a light sand.

Hopefully will have the main body section fully sprayed in the next few days.
