Mercury cougar derby car!

Post by arni »

Most of the damage was created by replacing the original panels with tin foil,the colour is a chromatic green over a black base.

I like the effect you have managed to achieve with the dented bodywork; that is very realistic indeed!
Best wishes

Now that is something different, it's not every day of the week that models of crashed cars appear on here! That really does look good with very convincing damage, the model really looks like it has been through the mill!
