70 Sting

Mike, someone stole your car!!

Nice build. Looks good in white. Really like that interior, too. ?

Looks waaaaaay nicer than the Turtle Wax version! Well done sir.

Cool looking body. Body/wheel colour combos work well together. Was the resin difficult to work with due to its more brittle nature?

Nice job on the build and photography of Eleanor’s older sister. ?

Love the green. Realistic photography as well.

Great looking car. Very fine work. ?

Thanks Oliver, much appreciated. Yeah, Zimmerman’s wheels are one of the very few which come painted/chromed and ready to go. ?

What Zippi said.?

I truly appreciate that Rich. I’ve learned so much about the hobby from other modellers during these pandemic years that it’s an honour if I can return the favour in any way. ?

That’s not made out of plastic. Can’t be. ?

Pretty sweet. You’ve made some great mods. I would be showing off that engine too. ?

Thanks grumpy, it's just a single diffused light placed directly above. The smooth, gradient background comes from a combination of the seamless paper and its distance from the car. The downside of this flat lighting is that you don't really see the shine on the body. However, dust and other undesirables are also hidden. ?

Thanks radio. It's not the worst kit I've ever built (the body was also slightly warped but straightened out when attached to the chassis), however it's definitely not a Tamiya kit.

Nice looking car. Like the stance, too. ?

Paint has a smooth, natural gloss. Did you use an airbrush or spray can?

Sharp looking build. Great paintwork. ?

That's a great looking piece of junk. Awesome weathering technique.?

Beautiful car. Great colour and engine. ?

Thanks Tom. I used to be terrified of masking and painting. A helpful tip I picked up was to spray a little clear along the masking tape edges before applying the colour coats. This way any tiny gaps will be filled with clear before the colour can sneak under. The wheels came pre-painted from Zimmerman. ? Thanks Rex. As I mentioned above, this stye of ligfting/photography is very flattering. You made my day Glen. :^)

Thanks fellas, much appreciated. ? I must say, this style of lighting/photography is very flattering to model cars.

Lol, you may have mentioned it Joe. ?

Why didn't you tell me that before?! ?

Nice clean work, looks great.

That turned out fantastic! Great looking hood and trunk and that paint job looks excellent outdoors. ?
