Just started these 3 and pulled that gremlin from the unfinished projects shelf, i figured it would be more fun to build with other similar colored cars with sporty looks.

The nova is painted into testors green, the mustang is testors tangerine ( probably not the most correct orange for it but seemed to fit the best) the comet is testors gloss black, gremlin is model master bright yellow. This whole project is so... citrus

 

I had fun painting these colors they even kind of brighten the whole desk.

Here is some progress pictures, those motors are sure turning out fine even without anything added yet, the wires will make them very nice. I enjoyed making this so far a long with the doom 1 and 2 soundtracks playing in the background... great muscle car music lol

More progress, the Comet Cyclone is starting to look really badass, i am thinking maybe add a metal front bumper spoiler and make it black and very sharp looking,.. would make this car just look evil.  20130323_162115.jpg   170.17K   17 downloads  20130323_162218.jpg   152.62K   33 downloads  20130323_162040.jpg   174.16K   46 downloads
