Cool Hand Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 (edited) Got this one finished. An enjoyable simple build. Kit was alot better than I thought it would be. WIP thread is here My usual Tamiya TS-14 black, this time I did polish with Tamiya coarse, fine, finish compounds. And waxed with Meguiars NXT Tech wax 2.0 Interior TS-49 bright red over coated with Alclad Klear Kote flat ALC 314. Pegasus Chrome DZ's wheels, scratch built air tank and solenoids, 3D printed compressors and Lead City plaque.

AMT68 Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 That is just a spectacular build. The lowered stance and those wheels create a slick look. Great detail work and the polished paint looks superb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doorsovdoon Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 That paint looks amazing! It's one of those kits that fly under the radar, probably because of the box art, it's widely overlooked. Excellent job on this, and that red interior looks spot on, very nice build! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m3fan Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Great job Luke! Wish I could get a black paint job looking that good. Do you use the can or airbrush and how many coats do you use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
