62 Catalina Barn Car

[Ronnie]

Hello all, I thought I should probably share some of my work since I am always admiring all of yours. Mine is not very good but I give it my best. This is a 62 Catalina I picked up. Next step will be making a front of a barn for it to be sitting half out of like it is being pulled out of a barn and someone is trying to get it running again. This is the first model car I have done since I was a kid 20 years ago so go easy on me LOL.

Looks great. Nice and rusty and crusty. Barn is looking very cool too.

 

[Quaralane]

Nice addition with the barn

 

[Ronnie]

Started to get some color on the barn, didn't turn out to bad I don't think.

 

[Ronnie]

I also ment to ask, anyone got any ideas on something that would be good to use for hay in this scale for the loft area?

 

[Ronnie]

Starting to get the ground work going now

Hello Ronnie
That is some bit of building there!
I too am in awe of your weathering technique, both the engine bay and chassis are looking "real" bad, and that is great!
I am looking forward to seeing how you do the barn!
Thank You for sharing
with Us here!
Later

If it weren't for the edges of the base, this could almost pass for a real car.
Excellent work

The weathering on the car is very good.
