Well done! Those quick builds are great to do every once in a while!

2016 Camaro “Shooting Brake” - C1 Models/AMT
Dragonhawk1066 replied to BDSchindler's topic in Model Cars
That looks awesome! Nice subtle engine weathering too. -
Thanks! I use a homebrew thinner, and the craft paint is water-based acrylic. I actually have a Youtube video I just recently posted showing the thinner recipe I use, how I thin the paint, and how I spray it. Thanks, It's a custom mix of craft paints, but I think MCW and Gravity Colors Spain have the correct factory mix although they're for an airbrush. To my knowledge nobody makes a spray can in anything close to that color. Thanks! The fuel fill tube is molded into the chassis, I just highlighted it with some paint. It is a very well done and detailed kit!

Another straightforward Pontiac: GTO -69 The Judge
Dragonhawk1066 replied to kjohan's topic in Model Cars
Nice looking Judge, and a rare color combo indeed! -
It looks fantastic, you did a great job on it! Hard to beat the classic Blue with White stripes on a Cobra! Hope you find a great new hobby!

Here's my version of the Revell 1969 Chevy Nova Yenko, painted with a custom mix of craft paints for the body and interior. I mixed Folkart Metallic Peridot with Decoart Shimmering Silver for the body, and cleared it with Createx UVLS 4050 Gloss. I used BMF for the window trim. The interior is done with craft paints as well, using Folkart Basil Green mixed with other greens for the different shades and I added copper wire for the door locks. The chassis was painted with Folkart Black, and I used various craft paints to give it a bit of a weathered look. I used B.F. Goodrich tires from Fireball Modelworks with parts box wheels and caps, and used copper wire for the valve stems. The engine is painted in a craft paint mix, with spark plug wires and heater hoses added for extra detail. I also added a 350 sticker on the air cleaner to go with the 350 badges on the marker lights to complete the "sleeper" look. This was a great kit, just like the Special Edition 2 'n 1 Nova kit, and went together very well and I had a great time building it. Thanks for looking!

Looks good! I'm just about done with mine too.

The Camaro looks great! I actually like that body style. I'm in the same boat as you, there's always something small and stupid that I do to mess up an otherwise almost perfect build, lol.

That's a sharp looking GTO!

Very nice! Certain cars look really good in the Gulf Livery!

I actually had a few bucks to spend on model kits for the first time in a long time this week, so I hit up Ollie's and Hobby Lobby. I almost skipped Ollie's because I was over 99% sure they wouldn't have anything, but the wife talked me into stopping in. Boy am I glad she did, I grabbed a couple of the Z06 Corvette's, Viper RT/10's, a '99 SVT Mustang and she wanted the Snap-Tite Jeep Rubicon, plus everything was 15% off! There was still quite a few of the Jeep's, Ford Raptor's, 2014 Corvette Stingray's, and 2018 Mustang GT's, all Snap-Tite's, still on the shelves. After her appointment she talked me into going to HL even though most of my "allowance" was now gone and I finally snagged the new Revell 1971 442 that I had wanted badly since it's release.
