Art Laski Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 I needed to do a paint test to see if I could avoid some ghosting issues I experienced previously, so I pulled out a 1/32 scale '55 Chevy Snap Kit I had in the stash to paint the body and see how it went. It came out great, so I decided to just build the whole car this week. Doing that I was able to get some foiling practice and Alclad practice too!
Scalper Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Looks good for that scale.. wheels look really nice.
tbill Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 looks good, although to me it looks like the back bumper is upside down.
snacktruck67 Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Love the color. I just received some Tamiya's Pink Primer. I also have a pink pearl paint. Just looking for the right kit to use. Again, I think you did a fabulous job. Really love the 55's. The back bumper may be upside down, but you know, it is a nice twist.
Art Laski Posted March 15, 2015 Author Posted March 15, 2015 Haha, well it just might be upside down. I tried it the other way and it didn't seem to fit, so I turned it around. But it's a snap kit, so I can easily turn it around if that's the case! Thanks for looking, guys.
John Teresi Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Art........I was thinking the same thing when I saw the first picture........the bumper is upside down........but,so glad that it is a snap kit........you can fix it easily.......your first mistake ever..........now you know how I feel when I do something like that.......but,I know it won`t happen again right Brother?........this is an excellent example of how nice a snap kit can come out.......very nice Brother five stars

Art Laski Posted March 16, 2015 Author Posted March 16, 2015 Thanks for the comments, guys! What's your definition of a 'quick build,' Chris? Just one year? I don't care who you are, that's funny right there... :D
bogger44 Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Now that brings back some memories, I remember building a couple of these when I was a kid. You've done a nice job on this one.
