Shelby Mustang - classy or apocalyptic rustbucket?

Post by tigrazor »

Hmmmm. I really cant decide what my 1/24 Shelby Mustang should look like. On the one hand the GT 350 H is a true classic - no doubt. And he deserves a classic build. On the other hand its a perfect base for some MadMax madness.

Decisions, decisions...

:hmm: That is a hard one.

Personally I'd go with the classy look.

Both.
Do a 50/50 split down the middle, one half beautiful pristine classic, the other rusted out and modified.

Hehehe. One classy, one apocalyptic, and even a suggestion for 50/50.

Oh yeah, that movie is really great and more than I ever expected. Shame on me, I really have to get the other parts too, I saw them only in shattered pieces and never complete. Smells like blasphemy.

Classic look. But it would interesting to see what you can do as a Mad Max look.
