I did the 1/35 version of this a while back - a very nice model - don't know if this was a scaled down 1/24. or if the 1/24 is a scaled up 1/35.......

Interested to see how this goes, I used AK True Metal on my 1/24 Model T Roadster & 1/35 Firetruck, which was OK, but could have been better..............

Got some more work done to this, and the Ammo paint goes on nicely. Sprayed at around 10 PSI.

Neat work Ian , did you have to thin the Ammo paint ?

No Tony it’s the same consistency as Alclad.

 

[Jim R]

That looks to be a nice kit. Not the usual subject for the scale. That Ammo metallic seems to have gone on well. Is it one of those where they recommend it goes on over a gloss black base?

Lovely paint work Ian

 

[papa 695]

Got a little bit more work done to this one.

That finish looks exemplary so far Ian. Brass and red is a great combination. I assume the running board logo is hand painted…..very nicely done if it is :thumb2:
