I figured I'd share my latest with Y'all. Recently, I got interested in "box art models"....models that are built exactly, or as close as possible to the art on the box. I dug out one of my oldest kits, an AMT early 60s vintage 1949 Ford, and decided to build it as the mild custom depicted on the box.
This is a 99.9% box stock build. The only extras I used were flocking in the interior and the whitewall tire decals. Everything else is from the kit....and yes, this is the original kit, not a recent reissue. These old kits are meant to be built!
The paint is Testors Italian Red with a urethane clearcoat.
I had a blast building this one! As soon as I finish a few other projects, I'm gonna do some more box art models!
