AMT Cheverolet Bel Air ยด55 Regal turquoise / India Ivory
espo replied to Greasefinger's topic in Model Cars
Great looking 1955 paint colors and finish. Clean chrome trim and emblems. Realistic looking interior colors. -
Beautiful looking paint finishes. Like the pictures of the chassis.
-
Beautiful paint finish and like the color combination. The chrome body trim on the hood and trunk are all cleanly done. Like the stance along with the wheel & tire combination.
-
Great looking paint color and finish. Like the SS style stripes better than the "circus stripes" that Chevrolet used. The Tuned Port Injection would have been a better factory option as well.
-
Great looking paint treatment and finishes. Like the way you finished the chassis and engine. I agree with you about this kit, and I built one in black a couple of years ago.
-
Beautiful looking body conversion and paint finishes.
-
Excellent finishes and fine detailing. One needs to review your build pictures to appreciate what all went into this build.
-
Looks much better than "great". Looking back and forth between the pictures of the real car and your model the finish on the wheels is the only thing that you might notice. The body color and finish along with the vinyl roof and white accent paint look to be done the same.
-
Great looking parts fabrication and detailing throughout.

Cleaning Resin car body & parts before priming
espo replied to Chevy II's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Have you tried Dawn Dish Soap? This product is often used to remove crude oil residue from waterfowl without hurting the bird but dissolves the oil. Might also contact the caster of any resin bodies or parts you are using to see what they recommend as some cleaning products can and will damage curtain types of resin parts and they should know what would work the best for cleaning their castings. -
Is It Wrong to Hate My Neighbors?.....ALL OF 'EM!!!!
espo replied to StevenGuthmiller's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
I have fought this same battle more than once myself. A suggestion for when you sit down with your realtor, maybe offer a price concision if they can find someone with an affiliation with the Hells Angels to buy your home. -
Revell '65 Chevy Pickup and Hemi Hydro
espo replied to tahiti7's topic in Model Trucks: Pickups, Vans, SUVs, Light Commercial
Beautiful paint finishes on both the pick-up and the boat. Like how you detailed the boat interior and engine. Wish we had more of these we could build. The pickup chassis detailing and engine look great as well. -
34 ford pickup

Love the crusty finish on the body and the vintage speed equipment on the Flathead. -
Like the paint finish. These were known for their metal flake finishes and your paint job looks very realistic to that appearance. Very nice interior and would hate to get any sand on it.
-
Great looking paint color and finish. Nice chassis.
-
Great looking paint finish and shade of blue. The chrome trim looks cleanly done. Good looking engine details. Your mention of the front ride height, the 1:1 when new tended to look like they were going uphill when sitting still. This stance looks much better.
-
Like the solid color understated overall look. The contrasting interior looks well detailed.
-
Great looking paint finish and color. Like the changes to the vinyl roof treatment. Nice to see a showroom style build like this once in a while.
-
Great creativity.
-
Like the changes to the front end and the paint.
-
Sunny and upper 70's. Patio time with some adult beverages and steaks on the grill.

Great looking paint and interior. Like how you repurposed materials for the interior.
