Bruno Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Here's the AMT Fireball 500 built box stock. Everything is from the box, no add-ons or parts swapped. It's a very crude kit, like their '69 Barracuda kit, it has a very nice body though, and a car trailer is included in the kit (I haven't built the trailer yet...) So I decided to build this one using only the parts from the kit, only detail with paint and BMF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRG Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Your build proves one thing, it is possible to build a really nice model without all those after market parts. Good job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruno Posted October 4, 2010 Author Share Posted October 4, 2010 Thanks everyone That fade paint job was easier to do than I thought, I don't have much experience with my airbrush, still it came out nice. I used automotive waterborne basecoat sprayed with my airbrush, and urethane clearcoat sprayed with my mini touch-up spray gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
