Hey guys, my first build of the new year. Not the best kit but I think it came out pretty good. A lot of fit issues and flash. I used craft acrylic paint threw a airbrush. Pretty much box stock except the wheels and tires. Thanks for looking and comments welcome.

I’ve got a couple of these in my stash, the box art is horrible, but it’s the only game in town for the year. You’ve done a fabulous job on this build, and have changed my mind about how good this can look when done! If you know, what wheels and tires did you use ? I say if you know, cause we all have the parts bins of stuff with no clue where it came from, lol.

Passed on this kit a squillion times cuz the box art made the kit look so toy-like. Your build is clean and mean; will have to pick one up and throw on some evil meats like you've done.

Did you add a smoke tint to the headlights? They have a nice depth to them.

Thanks for the comments. The headlights were done with a very thin black wash.

nice work can you detail how you painted with the craft paint and did you clear coat? thanks

I used 50%paint and 50%windshield washer fluid and yes I clear coat when paint is dry. I also use a airbrush. Works great.
