Barris '70 Impala (finished interior 16th December)

Love these LR paint jobs. This really jumps off the screen at you, I dig your design and colours. -
Unfortunalty the issue has been self inflicted, either from wet sanding or thinning it. I have been using Tamiya putty for as long as it has been available in Canada, never have I had an issue with drying. In fact just the opposite, it dries too fast. I agree with David, scrape it back and start over.

The visual changes you made to this really make it a much better looking car, not so cartoonish, great stuff. The wheels and side pipes help bring it all together. I really like this.

I'll be following this, good start so far. A note on the paint of the movie car, it was actually painted a very dark green. The car was painted the very dark green simply because black is the most difficult colour to capture in a photo and on film as it plays havoc on lighting.

That turned out great Adam, really great work all round, the tire's look fantastic.

Really sharp looking build. Nice work on the seats and belts, I really like the added rivets.
-
Very cool looking, I like all the changes you have made to it.

Wow, this really looks great.

Really great looking build. Nice work.

Someone had fun building it, if you look close there are a number of very creative artist touches. I would think if the front of the cab was stretched to the engine it would drastically change the look. Regardless, it's an individuals creative vision and labour of love.

Thanks Jesse for the suggestion. I have, they're too small. The rear tire's from the MPC 1/16 Cobra kit look about the right height, but the fronts are too tall.

The tire's are about as close as I can figure for this shell.

Man there are some great finds here great stuff everyone. So after CrazyRick posted his 1/24 scale completed Road Coach. I reached out to him for find out where he got it. Turns out the guy who 3D printed his version also had a 1/12 version, so I jumped at the chance,. It's something I have been thinking about for the past 8yrs. The sad news, it is no where near 1/12, those are 1/12 scale F1 tire's. This shell appears to be closer to 1/16 scale. I am now on the hunt for the Revell 1/16 Big Bad Van kit.

Great progress. I dig how you fit and prebuilt it before painting it. -
Welcome aboard and back into the Hoddy. . Which acrylics are you using? Some are fickle some are a dream.
