Great work !

Great build

Awesome build! Love the livery.

Absolutely nailed it. Sweet build!

Amazing build and photos!

Great build! It came out beautiful. I had the same issue with mine when I mounted the body, along with some frame warp.

Beautiful work!

I’ve always wanted to do something like this. I’m glad you did, good inspiration. Great builds and color choices for each era!

It might be a shade darker than what you are after but this is Tamiya TS-2 out of a can. Hope this helps!

I agree. Great color!

Take pics! I’d love to see it.

Beautiful!

Thank you all! 👍🏼

Thank you!

Same here. I think it’s aged pretty well, and they look great when setup properly.

Thank you all

Thank you. I agree, it does build up well!

Hello Everyone, I’m starting off 2025 with a build that lingered from 2024. Here is my version of the 1990 Ford Mustang by Revell. It’s mainly box stock, other than seat belts, plug wires, and an ignition. I painted it with Testors Graphite Dust and Testors Clear. Various other paints were used through out. I wet sanded and polished it, then hit it with Tamiya polishing compounds which I tend to be a fan of. I recommend this kit and it was a fun one to build with nice aftermarket parts out of the box. Thank you for checking it out and I hope you all enjoy. - Steve

Here is the flyer.

I’ll be there!

Great build

Agreed, the directions were vague and the part fit wasn’t ideal on some important parts. Thank you all ??

I agree, it had its challenges and I didn’t plan accordingly for them. Lesson learned! Thank you for mentioning the hood ornament. I think that is something I can go back and fix. Thanks again!

Hi Everyone, I finally got around to finishing this up. This one took me a while as life sometimes just gets in the way of being able to be at the bench. Anyways, here is my completed AMT Peterbilt 359 California Hauler. I don’t typically build big rigs but wanted to give one a try. This kit definitely came with some fitment challenges. I really should have taken the time to totally build this one up without any paint to really get the fitment perfect, as doing that once everything was painted took a lot of time, and even some repainting. All in all I am happy with the way this one came out and it should look pretty good on the shelf. I finished it in Testors Extreme Lacquer Bronze and cleared with their Extreme Lacquer Clear. The frame was shot with Krylon Gloss Black. This kit did include the sleeper however I opted for the day cab version. The engine was also shot with Krylon Gloss Yellow. Since it was my first build I really wanted to focus on just building it box stock. Thanks for looking and following along with this build. Any comments / advice for future builds are welcome! - Steve
