Started this build 2 years ago, but it stalled out for some reason that I cant recall. Recently got it back on the bench for completion. Its a decent kit for Snaptite. I built it for the purpose of practicing and learning how to airbrush SMS pearl paints. Sometimes its good to do simple builds that will help to develop new skills. Wip can be seen in my build thread

As with most of my "On the Workbench" threads, this model is actually finished. I thought I would create this thread so that you all could see what comes in the kit and to maybe share what I have learned from building it. I am always happy to explain anything that I have done or answer any questions you may have. This is the kit that I used. It is not a bad kit. I was looking for a quick, hassle free build and this fit the bill. I am normally a racecar builder. I don't have the creativity than many of you do to be able to come up with some amazing custom. I went to the Internet to find some examples of a custom '57. Of all of the images I found, I only found one '57 in a Ruby Red body with a Champaign top and trim. After this picture was taken, I settled on Tamiya Mica Red and Titanium Gold. I removed all molded on scripts and thought I would replace them with PE from MCG. I also removed all fender scripts as well as door handles and locks. I rescribe all panel lines and I scribe around all parts that will receive BMF. Scribing a channel like that gives the blade something to follow when trimming the BMF.
