69_charger Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 (edited) Hey guys, been a while since I have been here. I bought a Torino (the Revell kit), and I have planned some things out on it. I have been tossin the idea around of putting some Pegasus Torqe Thrusters and Calipers, doing a one tone deep, deep purple pearl over flat black, and it is spraying wonderfully on this awesome 25 degree (celcius) day. very smooth. and way, with the pearl over black, its has just that purple mettalic effect. I only ave pictures of the engine here, i will get more tonight, did alot of painting! Edited June 22, 2010 by 69_charger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
69_charger Posted June 21, 2010 Author Share Posted June 21, 2010 UPDATE! Chassis Painted to scale, 4 ½ “ exhaust tip, made by me by cutting a bit of aluminum tube, and sanding it to the desired exhaust tip angle, and taking a q-tip with most of the fuzz removed, dipping it in flat black, rubbing it on the inside, and calling it good. I painted the body, as well. Pactra R/C Lacquer over John Deere Muffler Black. They sprayed very well, as the can of black was in a car outside in the sun for a week or 2 lol. Picture Prep with Glass Cleaner. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
69_charger Posted June 21, 2010 Author Share Posted June 21, 2010 (edited) a few more. Interior Panels. the paint went a bit retarded on the seats, but it still looks pretty cool. It is body color, with dull cote over top of it. The Engine. Please tell me what you think! wether you think it looks like ######, or if it is good.

Darwin's Heros Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Looking mighty fine. Could use a bit of touch up on the door panels, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

69_charger Posted July 1, 2010 Author Share Posted July 1, 2010 Thanks. I have somethings to say about this. I now have a silver stripe between the 2 tone, I have a ford SVT gt500 engine, and I have found some wheels from a coronet kit. I however do not have any pictures. My camera was taken by my brother.
