Looks good so far and you bring up a good point about the excess layering of paint obscuring molded in detail.

Good looking lot of builds this last year Dave!! I've gotta get me one of those Firebird kits as it's one of my all-time favorite cars.

AMT 2017 Camaro "Fiftieth" Anniversary Edition
mustang1989 replied to mustang1989's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Getting these panel inserts into the body is proving to be a tricky process. I'm having to thin out & slightly trim the edges of the outer inserts & headlight buckets as well as the lower grille to get them to fit in the recesses properly. Before: and after: I do like what AMT did with the outside rearview mirrors. They pretty much pinned the mirrors OOB: and they fit pretty well once inserted into the holes. Maybe a little clean up but this is definitely a step in the right direction so the mirrors will stay in place when handling later. -
WOW!! Now THIS......is definitely cool. Looking forward to watching this one come along.

Thanks Carl! I messed around with the core support a little more and got it to move forward........some. Not perfect but I'm not going risk all the work that I've put into it up to now in fixing a minor blem. -
Bob, thanks for droppin' in old friend. Thanks alot buddy. Thanks John. I'll let you in on a little secret. I don't run front plates on my 1:1 cars/ trucks either for just the reason you stated. Texas still has the front plate rule in effect. lol Thank you, Lee, for the good word pal. 'Preciate it Anders!!

Very cleanly built car and those wheels and tires as well as the stance really set it all off. I hear you on twisted parts and flash. I just built a 1970 Camaro not too long ago that if I hadn't caught the slight twist in the body would have given me some fits after the paint work during final assembly. Well done.

Good "used" look on this car. Got any shots of the interior?

Black is a hard color to get right and additionally to hard to keep from being boring in places like the interior. This ......is definitely NOT boring. Great shine on the exterior and good usage of different shades of black on the interior and picking out the small details. Superb build.
