Rev's MK-2 Build

[Rev]

Argh. Im so close to finishing the color coats, just fixing small mistakes here and there on the edges. sand, spritz, sand, spritz, grumble...lol

Colour is looking great Rev! Love these kits. Haven't seen one in a bright colour before so am excited to see it assembled. The headstock is more like a fender set up so a truss rod cover might not be feasible.


cheers,
Gav.

Well, aside from one spot on the body where a tiny piece of newsprint got caught in the paint, Ive finished color coats. Currently oiling the fretboard before I tape it up again (it feels a bit dry) to do clear coats. I also sprayed a black accent on the headstock, which I want to show you guys, but the mobile site doesnt let me upload pics. Gotta take a small model brush and fix a tiny error on the accent anyway.

[Rev]

Heh, Gavin, your video on Youtube of you banging along with the first Ramones record was what led me to Pitbull anyway. They oughta give your ass a discount or something.

Hope this image works. I did a 60s' "flying wedge" on the head to offset the black pickguard. The stencil bled in a couple of spots, but I should be able to fix that with the model paintbrush.

Are you going to name it "Bart"???

[Rev]

Are you going to name it "Bart"???

I might have, but a friend already referred to it as "Wino Piss", so that's its working name at the moment.

Looking good Rev!
If you hadn't mentioned the Flying Wedge, I would have pegged you as a Star Trek fan!!

[Rev]

That was the downside, ha. Everybody knows THAT wedge. But I couldnt find anything else that looked good.

(my first mockup for a black accent looked like a condom!)
