    Revell - 1/16 - Rolls Royce Phantom (1934)

    Finished.

    But to be honest, I feel kinda defeated by this model. By painting it to desired level. I have failed and I admit it.

    Pictures here are only because of your support during the building process.

    I know there are scratches, I know there is dust preety much everywhere, I know some part are not good enough, but I just wanted to have this done so I can be back to militaries!

      I think it's very easy for us modellers to be overly critical of our work, I for one have never been entirely happy with any of my builds. The fun is to work at it and improve ones skills. I'm sure many will agree that you phantom looks awesome, a cracking build. So don't be too hard on yourself.

      Regards

                            Looks good to me. Don't be so hard on yourself, a car of this age would have a patina of age about it and probably wouldn't be factory fresh. I like it.

                              Thanks guys.

                              I'm hard on myself, because I've seen many masterpieces and when I started this model, I wanted to have a masterpiece. Unfortunately, Revell didn't help me at all, releasing poor quality model or - as other say - model requiring more work. Doors don't match the rest of the car, there are mistakes in the paperwork, chrome parts should be chromed again with some substitute and on and on.

                              Anyways, you're right. It's not as bad as I think, I just had different idea of this car. Looks ok on a shelf, as long as you quite far away
