Thanks Jeremy! My understanding is that the flat paints lay down smoother than the gloss, and if one is just going to gloss clear over it anyways it shouldn't matter if the color coat is gloss or flat.

Nice looking Challenger!

Thanks guys!

That looks excellent!

Very nice!!

Thanks guys!

Thanks Jeremy! I have heard from a few builders that for them the flat or matte colors spray on smoother while still giving that nice gloss look after clear. I used the semi-gloss black only because my local hobby shop didn't have any gloss black when I needed it. It did lay down pretty smooth though, so there may be some truth to flats and semi-gloss' drying smoother.

Thanks everyone, much appreciated!

Thanks all, much appreciated!

That looks nice! I love the color!

Here's my version of the Revell 1971 Olds 442 W-30. This one was done as a tribute to our Basset Hound Willow, who passed away on August 16th a few months shy of her 12th birthday. It's painted in Tamiya TS-29 Semi-Gloss Black with Tamiya TS-13 Gloss Clear. It was then wet-sanded, polished and waxed. I used Bare Metal Foil for the trim and side marker lights, with Tamiya Clear Orange and Clear Red. The interior was painted with a semi-gloss black craft paint, with black embossing powder added for the carpet area. The wood-grain is all kit decals, with Molotow Chrome brush painted on for the interior chrome. The engine is a custom mix of craft paints, and I added breather tubes, heater hoses, and spark plug wires for extra detail. This is an excellent kit with nice details and everything fit together very well, with the only exception being the rear end assembly needs some work to get the wheels/tires to fit correctly in the rear fenderwells. Due to the circumstances, this one became much more special to me than I ever could have imagined. Thanks for looking!!
