Revell Ford F-150 Lightning












1/25 Revell Ford F-150 Lightning

First of all...Thankyou to Thesyndicate who sent me the kit and said it was one of the best kits to be done. I had my doubts at first when I opened the box and saw the amount of work that it would need.

So after many hours of sanding, painting, test fitting etc etc I'm more then happy with the way it has turned out.

It needed plenty of work getting molding lines removed and alot of parts need to be test fitted to get a good finish.

Some things to watch out for is the fitting of the rear tailgate....needs plenty of sanding to fit correctly as the rear guards and bumper are not a good fit when they all start to go together. The guards needed to be "spread" to get the rear bumper fitting nicely.

The bottom side shirts can also be a problem to get sitting right too.

The rest of the kit has been built straight from the box...to lower this kit would need plenty of work and IMO it looks sweet just the way it is on the standard wheels and height....so it was not touched.

Kit was sprayed with Tamiya Bright Red.....in some of the photo's it almost has a Orange look to it.....seem's to depend on the light.

I must it was a joy to build something again that wants to "test" you at times.
