Zuppo's Rebel

 Next up is another kit from Miguel Zuppo. It's James Dean as seen in the 1955 film Rebel Without A Cause. The it is 1/4 scale and in white resin. It is numbered as 8 of 20. There seems to have been a bubble or two but Miguel made them disappear with what looks like gray Aves or the like. 

As usual I started working before I realized I never took a "before" pic.  All thats there is Stynylrez brown primer. 


 
White T shirt is white primer

Thanks for the autograph :)

I had forgotten whether this movie was B&W or color so I did a quick search - and there are a lot of both. But enough color pics to send me in that direction. I guess seeing so many B&W images, I thought he was in his usual black leather jacket. The red jacket surprised me, but let's go. Starting out with a black/purple red I laid down the base coat for the jacket. The white T shirt is protected with Silly Putty. 


 That's where we'll leave it for now. Thanks for looking.
