Hi Guys, this nice vehicle is done, no internal detailing, only bottom (as in Work in progress section) and exterior. I tried to make it as "in use but restored", I hope it is ok, I like it

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Regards, now I will move to 1931, next representation of beauty classic

"I hope it is ok". Yes, I think that will definitely be classed as ok... and little bit more. It was definitely worth going for those new wheels, and the chrome pieces are very good too.

I like the way you did the wood, looks very good.

Very nice indeed, it's nice to see something from the very early days of motoring.

I agree - the wood effect is very realistic. I must read the WIP to learn how you did it.

Woodlike plastic is done in a pretty simple way. One should use a base color by aero, depends on real wood main color. The most often I use is beige. Acrylic one. Than darker 3-4 colors should be put with dry brush, one by one. Acrylics too. The last color is dark brown oil, VanGogh in my case. It results in emulations with acrylic. Once it is dry I put gloss enemel with aero, 2-3 times. And standard polishing at the end. Good luck 😉
