SQFin Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 This is actually the second model kit I finished after my 15 year break from modelling. I's a Revell "Special Edition" kit, with rear tires from AMT 70 1/2 Baldwin Motion Camaro. Engine wired and plumbed + throttle linkage from MCG. MCG seatbelt clips and seat belts made from Tamiya masking tape. Sorry about the color. British racing green... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikemodeler Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Very clean and nicely detailed. I "get it" about the paint but that is close to a factory color. Well done, and keep them coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SQFin Posted May 21, 2012 Author Share Posted May 21, 2012 (edited) Thanks again everyone! Nova actually isn't that shiny in real life. Which is good imo, since I think too much shine is not realistic. What is the perfect scale-shine? I'm still working with my techniques to create a decent rusty-look, but I have not succeeded yet. It's so much easier to do the shiny one... I'll keep paarctising and hopefully some day end up with something i can post here.

sak Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 I love the color. If I make a critisism, it would be lacl of flocking inside but the awesomeness of the exterior makes up for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webb Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Outstanding! Especially the engine compartment. Maybe I should take a fifteen year break to see if mine come out like that. Oh wait, that would make me 70. Probably won't be able to see well enough! Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
