AMT68

Great looking Chevelle and I'll have to look around for that color since I don't ever recall seeing it at my local auto parts stores.

Thanks for mentioning this Bill as I've attempted to approximate the '65 engine color with limited success. Never picked up a bottle of the Model Master engine blue (for the '66 and later engines) when it was available so will have to continue to experiment with that one.

Exceptional paint detail and obviously many hours of effort went into building this very one of a kind model.

Overall, a very good-looking build. The engine bay has excellent detail and the wheels appear to be blackwashed nicely. I'm guessing the gold paint is TS-21? I just finished painting a '65 Impala and the issue I had when using this color was the metallic particles smearing when I didn't apply the TS-13 in light coats. After stripping the finish the repaint turned out much better with light applications of clear.

That paint work looks absolutely superb.

That's the finest example I've seen yet of that model. Great detailing work throughout.

That turned out beautiful and the color is great on a vehicle from that era.

Great looking foil and decal work.

Thanks Cliff, it's become one of my most favorite colors.

Well there is one I've never seen and an exceptionally clean build.

The base coat is lacquer. Can this particular clear be shot over enamel? Generally, I'd say no but then I've never experimented with it over enamel.

Great looking build and color for that year. Nice detailing on the rear tail lights with only the horizontal lines being highlighted. That's something I have to correct with my next '66 GTO.

What a magnificent shine. You beautifully detailed what I imagine was a rather basic interior bucket given the era of the kit. Great work as always.

Very nice build and the interior detailing is great. I've seen that color at the home center but never on a model and I like it.

That built up beautifully Mario. I have one of these kits and have put off building it due to the fitment issues you've described. Now that I understand what assists in the final assembly process I'll be more eager to build the kit.

That's a great looking paint job.

Thanks Jim and Bob. I found patience is the key with foiling. And I'll get a certain amount completed and then leave it alone for a while.

That build looks beautiful and in a well suited color. What base did you use under the TS-58 and was it clear coated? I've used this color in the past and while it's looked nice, I much prefer the look on this model.

Great looking paint and trim detailing.

The brightwork looks excellent. Very impressive build.

Thank you Carl and David. The trim lines on this model are molded very cleanly and makes for easier foiling. Thanks Roger, I've taken quite a liking to this red and with it have done a few models. Thank you Al, Phillipe and David.

Thanks Roger, there's no need to post a photo I can understand how to modify the pick from your description.

Interesting concept and an idea I hadn't considered. Some sort of guide to keep the scribe of choice from wandering.

How did you modify the pick? I like the part about no wandering outside the panel lines. I'm comfortable scribing most panel lines but the more tightly radiused corners do pose a challenge for me at times.

It's an extremely clean build with excellent detail work.
