Beautiful looking '57!! Excellent paint/flame job and colors! I love the Lazy Modeller masks, they're so nice to use!

Looks great in red!

I love using Createx paints. There is a bit of a learning curve to get the right consistency for your particular airbrush, but once you're there it flows and dries very nicely. I do recommend using their products for mixing and thinning for better results, at least at first. Lots of great info on their website. As the others have said, definitely use a primer underneath. Using different base colors (metallic silver, metallic gray, and metallic black) will also slightly change the hue of the pearls and metallics. The Viper is a mix of Pearl Lime and Pearl Green, the others are straight colors.

Very nice looking Buick! Love the color!

Fantastic looking Charger! I love all of the custom touches, especially the X-pipe exhaust!

That is super cool!

Thanks everyone, I appreciate the kind words!

Thanks Tim! I love the Createx paints! There's a bit of a learning curve, but well worth the practice to get used to. They mix well within their own category. Opaque's mix with opaque's and pearls, pearls with pearls, and such. Not sure I would mix a Wicked color with an Illustration or Airbrush color, but then again that is what testing and experimenting is all about, eh??.

Thanks guys, much appreciated!

Here's my version of the Monogram Dodge Viper RT/10. The color is a mixture of about 80% Createx Pearl Lime and 20% Createx Pearl Green. For the stripes I mixed about 75% Folkart Pure Black with 25% Decoart Extreme Sheen Obsidian. Createx 4050 UVLS Gloss Clear was then sprayed on and later wet-sanded, polished, and waxed for the shine. I painted the interior in Apple Barrel Country Gray for the lighter parts, and the darker gray is Apple Barrel Dark Granite. I stripped the wheels and painted them in Createx Opaque Black, and cleared with the 4050 clear. While it is a pretty basic kit, and pretty much a Snap-Together, it was also a lot of fun. The details are pretty decent and the fit is pretty good as well. Newer cars like this don't seem to be very popular to build, but they can be very fun and are great to try different things with. As always, thanks for looking!

Wow, that looks great, especially considering the 48 hr. time frame!!

Nicely done!
