The "Road Shark" was my first adulthood attempt at building model cars. I've been focusing on resin or vinyl fantasy figures for the last three or four years, but wanted to give a car a shot. Sam Freeman gave me one of his out-of-production "Road Shark" bodies to play with, and I used my resin experience to clean up the older casting and clean it up for paint.
I raided my husband's spray paint stash and shot the body from below with a light blue pearl and from above with light blue metallic. Violet-Blue covers the interior from a Mustang Mach III, while the chassis is just sprue and sheet plastic.
My next appropriation came from Dave's decals paper envelope. Some browsing online and creative cropping rendered two Mako sharks for the sides of the car and a beautiful rendition of the Celtic goddess Danu for the hood.
