tom2112 Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 After many builds of cardboard models I felt a real desire to walk downstairs into the cellar and open one those plastic kit boxes hidden in a corner shelf. Well, once opened my desire became strong enough, to start a build. I have chosen one of my favorite classic cars, a Jaguar XK SS, manufactured in scale 1/24 by Revell.

tom2112 Posted January 14, 2018 Author Share Posted January 14, 2018 Couldn't wait that long and started to put together some parts like engine and suspension. I removed the chrome, which will be replaced by ALCLAD colors, with an ordinary oven cleaner spray. The kit seems to be quite detailed, but some more details will be added. I started with the rivets on the body. Those were taken from laser cut accessories of my cardboard modeling. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
