Completely different from the kit supplied (looks like a deluxe dash from a coupe) I will need to customize this one -

I was just about to say that same thing..cruise around your local art supply store..Michaels..Hobby Lobby..anywhere that sells paints and canvases.. You'll find lot's of cool stuff like Liquitex Matte Medium, Flow aid, water colours, chalks, dyes....all of these can be mixed into an acrylic thinner or water (use a drop of dish soap as a surfactant) and can't possibly hurt enamels or laquers. It is always good to coat your base colours with a flat or gloss clear, before you start any weathering. And as Bill said... 'But as always when using unfamiliar materials, TEST FIRST before committing to doing something on a model you care about. Good luck and have fun

Thanks david, I've checked my stock of evergreen/plastruct, and it looks like I'm making a trip to Dundas Valley Hobbies to pick up something suitable..1.0mm flat stock is just a little too big and 0.4 round rod doesn't suit. Got the louvers off the hood and tailgate and the stake holes are filled..cleaning up all the part lines on the body and bed as well as... Cheers -

The latest pic of ZigZag I keep the model room closed from her, but her undercoat hair will float for days.... Constant brushing and vacuuming, but I wouldn't trade this goof for anything❤️
