Finally finished this thing last night at around 4am. Thought it was a great and well designed kit by Revell. Originally didn't think this color was going to work but I learned to like it very quickly!! :D

Spectacular. A color in that range would also be good for your '62 Corvette.

Another amazing build my friend, you sure can paint. I must say that I am also enjoying your reviews in the "other" magazine greatly. How did you do the black masking around the front window?

Thanks bro. I used a sharpie from behind the windshield, there was a pronounced detail on the window which I followed to make this step a little easier.
