My goal for my current project is to have the paint finish to match a 60's/70's high impact color..(in this instance 'Top Banana'), but with a with a deep, rich metallic/pearl/ candy finish. For lack of a better example, remember the Testors MM Aluma Yellow Pearl? That color, but as a color matching basecoat under a candy yellow 2k clear. What would be the ideal method to achieve such a finish as that? I was told that a pearl over a solid, could potentially make the yellow appear much more pale if too much is applied. Your thoughts?

i just started building model cars and I’m a bit overwhelmed. I just tossed my first model in the trash cause it’s garbage. I’m using the Createx paint and all the paints involved. Like the pearls, candy, irradiance, and the Wicked paints. Do I need to scruff the models, use a primer instead of using the Detailed black or white? I have a ton of questions about how to use the Createx line of paints and I haven’t found a Youtube video called “How to paint model cars for dummies” most of all the tips involve shirts and I already have enough of those. Any and all tips, suggestions, or web links are welcomed!
