Bought a few collections so I've been busy sorting them out and listing them on eBay. At least my stash is getting bigger and bigger. Between that and preparing for upcoming mud runs (that time of the year again), I can't seem to complete anything I've started. Trying to do an easy project just so I can say its finished, so I started a snap kit. A vintage 50 mercury. Don't want to do anything fancy to it. Sprayed some flat black and sanded it down. Trying a few wheels and tire combos to see which way to go. Here's my attempt at getting out of this rut.

More to come soon I hope.

Almost done with this one. What?! A finished model from this guy?! Who is he?

Decided to go with the baby moons. More flat black, a bit of sanding/polishing to give it that unfinished look. A few minor details left and then off for a cruise and better pics in the hot blazing sun.
