Very nicely done exhaust. -

Beautiful piece you have done, nicely detailed and a perfect finish. Great color choice and the interior is well done. -
Still amazed at this chop!

That's a great looking piece you have there.

Something I rarely do is Box Stock anything. But this one is for our daughter who fell in love with this body style at a car show last year...

That's a nice model you have there... -
James, incredible job with the detailing on this Chevy. From the rust to the worn paint, to the stitching on the seats and all the other subtle touches. The thing I noticed first was how you lapped the window trim so as to look like the 1:1 pieces. You should be proud to display this one, Great Job.

Not an easy kit to make look good, but you did a great job. Nicely detailed!

Nice project you have going Mark, I do enjoy a real stock car build! -
Outstanding model, very nice...

Thank you for the comments, everyone. The top is the kit piece, I chopped it about 3 scale inches and then rounded it as much as I could. I painted it and the interior Tamiya Racing White and then covered it in Flat Clear and some blackwash to give it a little life. The body and chassis was painted Tamiya Pearl Green TS60 w/ a 40% clear coat by Model Car World Finishes, it's made for the military modeler but I like how it gives a satin look. Except for a few gentle mods and a kit bash engine, the rest is stock, Thanks again...

Not my cup of tea as a subject, but you've done a beautiful job on the build. Your foil work and details look great and the detail painting add just the right touches. Nice job.

Satin finish with a flaty, and a reshaped roof to represent a Carson top. This one fought me some with a twisted body but I think it turned out ok. I do know one thing I will not wait to glue the fenders on last ever again.
-
Outstanding rendition, that paint it smooth, and you added just enough detail. Well done...

I like the body it looks great from here. You could paint the hood semi-gloss black and call it a day! It's a nice build...

What is a good way to create panel lines?
James2 replied to ctruss53's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Yes practice makes perfect! I will cut a piece of styrene the desired shape of the line and then tape it to the area you're working on. Gives you a little more edge to work with than tape that will certainly change lines while scribing. A real scribing tool is helpful and the slower you go the less likely to have a mishap. -
It's like styrene surgery...

Nice styrene alterations, I'm pretty sure you can handle the wing!
