1/16th Minicraft 1931 Ford Model A Deluxe Roadster build.

Post by ian lanc »

Had this kit in my stash for years and with my modelling mode set alight again
i've dragged it out to build the thing, there are many parts to this model and
when its completed it will be a very fragile model indeed.

Painted the lower body in gloss black and the upper body in royal blue
basically as the 'box art' because this looks really nice. Quite a few
interesting stuff going on with this model like opening/closing doors,
rear seat can open/close revealing a nice bench seat, front wheels
turn left/right and the bonnet can be opened/closed from both sides.

Anyone got any tips how to replicate leather seats ? You know glossy and mucky edges in the grooves of the leather !


Will upload pictures soon as to how far i've got with it, bear in mind i haven't built a car for years :-|


Cheers.
Ian.
