StevenGuthmiller Posted October 5, 2015 Author Posted October 5, 2015 Thank you everyone!I love the old bubble tops.I guess I'll wait until the Mobius Pontiac comes out & then I'll have 3 out of 4 for '61.I already have a Flintstone '61 Olds 88 bubble top to do.Just have to get the bumpers chromed before I can do that one. Steve
Impalow Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 so pretty! great job Steve... perfect color choice and high quality work!
fseva Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Just fab! As usual! I would really like to see a few shots of your models with the front and back featured predominantly... don't know for sure if this is called "3/4" view???Also, what is your chosen technique for accentuating panel lines?

Also, what is your chosen technique for accentuating panel lines? Do you mean something like this Frank? I don't normally like to take photos like this just because I'm no photographer & it drives me crazy that the rest of the car is out of focus. I just use craft acrylics like "Delta Ceramcoat" for my panel lines. Easy to deal with & if you don't like it or make a mistake, it wipes right off with a damp cloth. I usually try to pick a darker shade of body color for the panel lines. I tried a medium tan for this one & wasn't impressed, so I went with a darker brown. Probably a little too dark, but it worked for me. Steve
TimKustom Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Looks incredible. Fantastic job detailing that kit.
vintagercr Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Wow I thought it was the real deal.........nice work

Lovefordgalaxie Posted October 6, 2015 Posted October 6, 2015 That can illustrate the word perfection.

You can make some adjustments on your camera to keep more of an object in focus - start by adjusting the aperture - the smaller, the more will be in focus. While setting the aperture, you may have to compensate by slowing down the exposure time, but when it goes from 1/120th of a second to 1/60th, it's still fast enough that you can take the picture without a tripod. Thanks for the suggestion about panel lines! I will apply it in the future!

misterNNL Posted October 6, 2015 Posted October 6, 2015 Very realistic model.In a truer scale setting it would be very difficult to detect that it is 1/25 scale.One to be very proud of for sure.
fseva Posted October 6, 2015 Posted October 6, 2015 Thanks Frank, but I don't think I can adjust any of that on my camera. All I have is a 15 year old Nikon "Cool Pix". I always liked the Cool Pix line! Is it a SLR (single lens reflex)? If it is, it would surely have the ability to set the aperture, and that's the main thing that will give you better depth of field. Otherwise, I wouldn't worry about the fuzziness at the other end of the car... you can even get that on a partial side-shot, and really, nobody is going to notice when your fab models' most visible parts are in the foreground!
