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.
-
Thank you Anders. Thanks Alan. I've included a picture of the can and I get it at the home center. I like it since it holds up pretty well to more aggressive wet sanding without burning through the finish. And I polish it with Meguiars Scratch-X.

I love it! Great work integrating the semi fastback roofline into the MC body. Looks like you've also adjusted the panel line on the trunk opening to coordinate with the shape of the rear window. I was always a fan of the louvers on the Lagunas rear quarter windows, and they work well here along with the hood louvers from the Camaro. Definitely a one-of-a-kind build.

Great looking Bel Air and the clearcoat is super smooth.

AMT 1967 Shelby GT-350 in Pearl Tangerine..."The Great Pumpkin"

Another stunning build Craig. If I ever get an airbrush someday, I'll have to try these paints as you've developed some awesome looking colors. -
Is that Testors Turquoise over the black base coat? While the Bonneville looks very good with the white primer that GTO appears to be a color I'd be very interested in replicating on a future mid '60's build.
-
Great looking Plymouth.
-
Great looking transformation and excellent work fitting the LS7 in the engine compartment. I've never seen that color before but I very well may get a can since I have a thing for green cars.
-
Looks great. I never used the Tamiya Pearl Blue on a silver base before but now I would like to use that process. I really like the look it provides.
-
Thank you Larry, Hector and Carl. I'll probably get started on another one next spring.
-
Turned out great and the color is well suited for the era. I won't be able to start mine until next spring since the weather has gotten too cold for painting bodies.
-
Thanks Peter. My foiling on the wheel openings could've been better. Overall, I'm satisfied. Thanks Antonio.
-
Thanks Ron, and Rastislav. The '66 GTO was definitely one of Pontiacs best looking cars.
-
Thanks for the info David and I'm not surprised it's an older can since that shade of blue isn't so common anymore. Not a bad idea to visit estate sales. In the meanwhile I have this '62 kit unbuilt so I'll be following along.
-
Great looking Vette and a less commonly seen year in a scale model.
-
Beautiful mirror shine on the clear Bob. I also like the spark plug boots.
-
Thank you Lee, Larry, David, James and Bruce. Thanks, Glen, Harry, Eric and Dennis Thanks Mario, I've started early morning pictures on sunny days, and I like how they're turning out. Thanks Ken, John, Chris and Tommy. Thank you Bill. I used Tamiya black panel wash. I used it on my '67 Impala recently and I like how it tones down the kit chrome. Thank you Bob, Tommy, Steve, and David. Thanks Ryan. I have a couple more of these kits but I did pick up an MPC '67 just to see what I could potentially make of it. Haven't done it yet though. Thanks Mike, I may do my build with a vinyl top. They're such great kits. Thanks Dave and good luck with the build. They are such beautiful automobiles.
-
What is the color and brand of the base coat? I really like it and you're off to a nice start.

Built from the current Revell issue of the 1/25 scale '66 GTO. Painted in Ford Toreador Red and cleared with Rust-Oleum in the green label can. Simply a very well detailed kit that was a pleasure to build.
-
Glad to see the Monte Carlo especially with the whitewall tires.
-
Very nice. I just got completed a model with Dupli-Color Forest Green Pearl and it looks very similar to the color on your Mustang.
