discussion Monogram Packard Boattail Speedster - 1/24 scale

[Jim R]

Hi all
Despite quite a few difficulties along the way it has actually turned out better than I expected although it is not a model that one should look at too closely :rolling:

Very Elegant Jim nice finish

 

[Steve Jones]

Elegant is indeed the right word for this build. It really does look like the real thing. The factory finish look really suits this build. One to be proud of sir :thumb2:

 

[Steve Brodie]

Oh I say chaps that is one build of perfection, congratulations on both the build and the photos. The latter are fantastic Jim , would you please explain how you took them.

 

[Jim R]

Thanks guys for all your positive comments. They really are appreciated and valued.
John - The camera is a rather old Panasonic Lumix FZ38. I have a cheap photo booth with 3 daylight LED lights. It came with two but I have fitted an extra one above the booth. Most of the photos are taken with the camera on a tripod and the timer set.



Thanks again.
Jim
