Just finished this AMT Ford Starliner. I built her 100% box stock.
The color is Tamiya TS-10 French Blue. It's not a stock color, but I just love it. The paint job on the body was all done with the Tamiya spray can.
All the rest was painted with Testors acrylics and enamels with my airbrush.
Whitewall were painted with a circle template and airbrushed Testors flat white acrylic.
The built took me just under a week.

That's beautiful! I'm working on one and was going to do it a very similar shade of blue. Good work!

I agree, this one can be tough to two-tone inside but he did great.
