Monogram's Red Chariot

[spike morelli]

As you guys get to know me here, you'll find I'm a sucker for old model kits. I built this one pretty much straight out of the box, I don't think I changed anything, save for adding radiator support rods made from wire. The red body is the original plastic color, just shot over with some clear. Oh, I could super-detail these old kits, but their simplicity in presentation is such a breath of fresh air. Thanks Monogram .O.K., I added the last photo, taken prior to these, and it's in focus ( someone else took the photo, I just found it in a file).

Ah, that takes me back, built it when it was new. I'm building the stock version as an off/on project:

Very nice work Spike, looking forward to more!

Excellent job.

Also, your way of working on these old kits mirrors exactly my approach.
