Revell Mustang GT WIP

Finally getting started on this kit. So far, the kit falls together pretty easily. The only drawback i faced so far is that I had a bit of trouble is the risers. I ended up gluing them to the engine at a slight V angle. finally fixed the problem. Thanks go to Perfadv Next update coming......................................

alright, now i fixed my pics, it is time for another update. Hope y'all don't mind a few pics. It just started as a wash for the engine, but then i thought that the parts still looked too much like plastic and not realistic enough "so why not just weather the thing??". So i moderately weathered the car. To get the idea, if i had just given the engine a wash, it would be lightly weathered. Heavy weathering is like Exoto's hand speed weathering (which i cannot do ). It is only 1/2way done since the rest of the parts (axles, springs, brakes) will be done once i get to that part of assembly. If you are wondering why i made the manifolds gold, it's cause i was inspired by the Exoto Motorbox Jaguar XJR-9LM exhausts, which are plated gold.
