Thank you !

I simply sanded the fenders as thin as possible. I then drilled holes in them and played around with a scalpel to make them look different.

The doors were done the same way, I also created damage simply by scraping off more plastic.

The tires were cut off and they were then given a flat look with Magic Sculp.

The canvas seats were given a worn look. I pressed very thin pieces of Magic Sculp in a linnen handkerchief to create a canvas texture.

Awesome Guy. The 'bit of feeling' thing is the key - you are able to take in what you see in the real world and reproduce it in miniature - a rare skill.

Incredibly nice work Guy, It's a real test to take a 45 year old kit and make something new and exciting, you've nailed it. :thumb2::thumb2::thumb2::thumb2::thumb2:

:thumb2::thumb2::thumb2::thumb2::thumb2: One of the best weathering I've seen. Very natural and not overdone which makes it believable. The simple base is also nice. Did you stamp out all those leaves?

Cheers,

Thanks a lot Bob !
Evan, thank you. With a Dremel tool a whole lot can be done without too much effort, that combined with simple but effective weathering tricks made it what it is now. When I do a rusty thing project I'll write it down SBS-wise.
Richard, thank you sir. The leaves weren't stamped out, they're from GreenLine, lasercut paper products, the ferns are GreenLine as well.

Brad, thank you. My way of weathering is one of many, this is absolutely not the best way but it works for me.
