Burago Citroën Xantia (adapted version)
Más...
For those who follow my blog, this model will not look like a new one, and it isn't. I posted my Citroën Xantia from Burago 1/43 a while ago. A friend told me this basic model could be upgraded with some paint and marker. Today I gave it a shot and Gaucho Man was right, this is the result.
This is what I used as a guide
I started by taking the car apart, it's a normal model consisting of 6 pieces.
I took a black marker and started to color in the windows, the sideskirts, door handles and the mirrors, because that's the way they look in real life...
The real car has a black piece between the windows and the body (like all cars do), so I made black edge on the window piece...
It would be just a car without that fabulous CITROËN Sign, time to make it shine...
Because I'm busy with chrome color, it's easy to give the mirrors a threat...
and the Bumpers are in need of a fine chrome line
Next up are the taillights, the 1:1 Xantia has a strange color, so I made mine purple. Kinda looks right...
And this is the result
I did fuck up the chrome lines on the sideskirts, will have to redo these one day...
It even has indicator lights now
