Welcome back to the final part where I (re)build and paint this massive 1/8th Scale Super Snake Mustang from Agora Models.
When Agora Models contacted me offering to make one of their fantastic large scale kits, I had to say constructing such a thing, although interesting, wouldn’t really be feasible for me. So we agreed that I could instead paint a pre-built test shot of the model, in my own way. This is the final instalment in the story of how I tackled a unique weathering job in my own style.
The goal was a rusty and weatherbeaten, vegetation and mould infested beater of a car. I think I got there in the end.
In this video I attach new upgraded wheels, I weather the entire vehicle and use some neat Algae, Lichen and Moss effects from Lifecolor.
If you want to find out more, this is their amazing and very impressive large-scale replica of the Super Snake Mustang 550GT - a one-off car used to test a brand of tyres for an advertising campaign in the 1960s (agoramodels.com/1967-shelby-mustang-super-snake/). My one is sort of replica build that fell on hard times, abandoned out in the rusty acres, it was salvaged by someone and placed in a barn for future restoration. It runs and drives they said, before it was put away!
Thanks to Agora Models for supplying this sample (the test shot prototype) of their Super Snake Mustang in 1/8th scale, see agoramodels.com for more information.
I hope you enjoy this and that seeing it built encourages you to go and check out Part One:
