dantewallace Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Built this from an old 1981 Monogram kit. I tried to source the closest color I could to factory Goldenrod Yellow. What do you guys think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingiguana Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Nice, great color choice. I remember building that kit when it came out. I gotta pick one up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dantewallace Posted June 13, 2013 Author Share Posted June 13, 2013 Thanks for all of the compliments guys!! I really appreciate it. I am happy with the way it turned out overall, except for the firewall. It is very bare and lacking in terms of detail. I have built this older version and the 90's release back in 2008. I found that even though this kit came out about 15 years earlier, the mold never had extra firewall details added, shame. Still a nice kit with excellent fit and finish.

dantewallace Posted June 13, 2013 Author Share Posted June 13, 2013 Beautiful work !!! How did you paint the tires? Thank you!!, I used a toothpick and ink from a white paint pen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dantewallace Posted June 13, 2013 Author Share Posted June 13, 2013 Color really makes this one a standout. Nice indeed!! Bet that yellow would look good on the 70 Buick GSX, too. I agree, I built a 70 GSX a few years back but didn't want to go with the box stock yellow so I ended up with sublime green Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
