Nitrozilla Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I've always had a hard time building models straight out of the box. One day, a friend challenged me to do exactly that. While this isn't a car, it is a mode of transportation and it is on topic, sooooo...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austin T Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I love box top builds. Here's one I did of AMT 50' Chevrolet pick up. I don't care to much for Chevys but this box art was to good to pass up. Now I did substitute the white for cream,but I still think It's good enough to pass as box art. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
