An excellent build, Scott. Great choice of colors!!
-
Microscale's Micro Set says it is a decal remover. Never tried to use it that way, but maybe?
-
Very cool build, Chuck. I really like the engine you put in there. Nice job!
-
Wow, that is quite the build, Ville! Beautiful work

This is a great kit. And you did a really fine job with your build. Nice going!!

I have a set from a '67 Impala, but not the Street Machine version. Will they work?
-
Thanks for the follow up replies. Im off to do some testing. 😃
-
Thanks guys
@Bill-I wish that Testors paint were still available. Yea, maybe on line, but certainly I have no place near me that still carries Testors. Well, except for the little square bottles.
@ThatGuy-The silver you did is what Im looking for. Ive never heard of Pegasus paint. What size needle did you use? Ill have to look it up. Nice build, by the way
@Greg-Yes, I do have an airbrush. Would a .7 needle do the job? Thanks for the link.

Hi all:
Im looking for a clear, that has metallic/glitter in it, but in a bass boat style. Yea, I know it might not be in scale, but it will be appropriate for the build Im doing.
Any one know of such a paint? Short of that, is there a way to reproduce that effect?
And I guess I should add, it needs to be compatible with Tamiya acrylic paint.
Thanks in advance
Jeff

A big thanks to all of you that commented. I do appreciate the support.

Thank you all for looking in and the comments. I really do appreciate them, one and all.
@Rich- Your right, I messed up. Its a Lindberg kit. Thanks for pointing that out. Everything Ive built lately has been a Revell, I just assumed....oops. I will correct that
-
Here's my rendition of the Lindberg 67 Olds 442. Paint is Tamiya Metallic Orange with Tamiya clear. Scratch built parts include back 1/2 of the exhaust system, coil springs, throttle linkage, throttle return spring and their brackets. This was my real first attempt at weathering on the chassis
Aftermarket parts are Fireball Model carb and door handles, Model Car Garage P.E. set, Clearly Scale disc brakes, Best Model Car Parts license plate.
Tires and wheels came from the '62 Chevy Impala.
Thank you for looking. Any comments or questions, feel free to leave them in the comments below...(sorry, to much utube 😁)

I pickup this kit at the Philly NNL and challenged myself to get it done before NNL East. Approx. 90 days. Got it done with a day to spare
Built mainly from the kit, with a few exceptions. The hood is a resin piece, from Lex's. The tires, wheels and brakes are from the Foose F-100 And the exhaust system, except for the muffler is all scratch built. Paint is Tamiya metallic gun metal with Mr Hobby clear.Feel free to comment.Thanks
I was thrilled I got it done in time and very happy with the results.-

Some say the "murdered look" is over done but I like it and you've got it nailed. I like the use of both gloss and flat black on the body. Nice build!
