I have finished my 2021 Charger R/T. It is painted with Tamiya TS-54 Light Metallic Blue with a Semi Gloss Black interior. I added extra seat belt receivers and seat belts and hardware.

I decided to experiment with a can of grey lacquer primer that I had on a sprue of parts for the Jag. So far, the grey primer is blocking the red plastic. We shall see where this goes.

Nice! I built the same model years ago and rebuilt it a couple of years later.

Lookin' good! I built the same model!

Jaguar XK-E Coupe I started on the 3.8 Ltr. engine and this took me about half an hour to do. I forgot that these Revell of Germany kits require painting and assembly and each part requires usually more than one color of paint. This is gonna be a long build!

Thanks Dan, it is much appreciated! I may have to give it a try!

My latest project-Revell's Jaguar XK-E Coupe. I had to get extra parts from Revell DE due to a couple of short shots in the molding process. And, now to cover up the red plastic and change the color to Dupli-Color Forest Green Pearl with a tan interior. I've heard of using flat black followed by silver followed by my color choice to cover the red plastic. If I use a primer, do I use it before all of the cover coats or not? I want to do this process correctly and not to add my primary color in many, many coats to cover the red.

Thanks Carl and Guido!

I painted the surrounds on the front and rear windshields. I have to admit that this is something I have been putting off for a little bit. The windshields came out well, but the rear windshield now has a hole from all of the masking and the instructions don't tell you to insert anything red in the hole. Well, I guess that the instructions are just a guide and no one should pay much attention to them.

1971 Oldsmobile 442 W-30 Since the paintbooth was up and running, I added another coat of Tamiya TS-21 Gold to the body and all of the various parts in the kit. This kit is coming along slowly.

I had fired up the paintbooth and was in the process of shooting parts and pieces for other projects and I happened to think of this one and out it came with the remaining paint that I had and shot the roof and trunk lid. It came out rather well with what I had left.

Thanks Noah and Jeremy! I just need to finish the front windshield and the rear window.

The Charger is coming along! I'm still working on the windows for the Charger. I just have to paint and install the front and rear windows and paint and install the rear license plate panel and then final assembly.

Good, Jeremy! I hope that you enjoy the color!

Thanks Jeremy!
