mrm Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 I'll play Some of my favorites. First a Nissan GT-R. This is a highly modified 1:18 diecast. The front bumper, grilles, lights, sideskirts, trunk spoiler and ground effects, together with the wheels were all scratchbuilt from plastic. Color is original Nissan Bayside Blue.
mrm Posted October 29, 2019 Posted October 29, 2019 (edited) Ferrari 599 tuned by Hamann. Paint is Ferrari Bianco Fuji. Ferrari California tuned by Hamann. Paint is Ferrari Giallo Modena Triplo Strati Pearl. This 599 by Hamann was done in Bianco Fuji again, but with flat clear and carbon details. Stunning paint effect, but almost impossible to photograph as it "glows". Yes, it's a flat pearl pink Lambo. And Yes, the car does exist. Paint is nailpolish with Tamiya pearl clear, topped with flat clear. Convertible Ferrari 288 GTO?!?! Why not? In Tamiya black. . Ferrari 458 Italia in original TDF Blue. Novitec Rosso tuned Ferrari 430 Scuderia in flat red and black. Yes the real car was painted like that! Koenig Specials tuned Porsche 928 Paint is Ferrari Rosso Fuoco This is all paint. No decals (except for the Ferrari emblems) Paint is Ferrari Grigio Silverstone. The stripe is Tamiya red, white and green outlined with mica silver. Jamiroquai's Ferrari LaFerrari. Paint is custom mix to match the real car. These are probably my top ten contenders for some of my favorite paint jobs I've done on exotics. Edited October 29, 2019 by mrm 1

Jamese30 Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 OK, here is my offering. Hardly going to win a show and shine here but after years of trying to get a perfect paint finish with every model I opted to do a bruised and battered VW. I thoroughly loved it and I think spent ten times longer on the paintwork than any model ever before, getting the rust just right!!!! 1

Congratulations! All I can say is that these images show some of the best and cleanest paint jobs I have seen on modern exotic car models. I take it that you used automotive lacquer paints topped with 2k clear coat?

My guess would be urethane...and 2k clear. Then again, its probably stuff from Zero, or some other similar thing.

gbtr6 Posted January 7, 2020 Posted January 7, 2020 (edited) Here are a couple of my favorites. The helicopter was for my son in law, a Marine who flies Super Stallions. They are dirty birds. My first attempt at a helicopter, and with weathering. It has his markings also. I build mostly foreign cars, 1/43 to 1/12. The Ferrari is a 195 or 212, I forget I just like the color combo the 312B is the Tamiya kit Perry Edited January 7, 2020 by gbtr6
Roadrunner Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 Sadly, I've as yet not finished even one car model over the 5 years I've been a member here, but this is my favorite of the lot so far; Revell/Monogram '70 Dodge Challenger.
MarcelT4 Posted March 3, 2020 Posted March 3, 2020 Hello, here I show you my 1939 Chevrolet from Revell. The roof is chopped. The rear fenders were widened and moved up. The front fenders were also widened and the running boards were adapted. The chassis is changed, all suspensions and rear axle are selfmade. LS3 engine with Supercharger. The paint is Candy-Blue 2 over silver and 2K clear coat. The rims were created and printed by myself. Also the interior in Corvette C2 style

DPNM Posted March 9, 2020 Posted March 9, 2020 It looks like DupliColor Mirage blue/green to me. It depends on how the light hits it as it changes between those two colors.
Brudda Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 On 1/7/2020 at 9:48 PM, Brudda said: Hello 2zwudz, sorry for the slow response. Dealing with some health issues. The paint is a automotive water borne paint with a urethane clear. I painted a Toyota 2000GT twilight turquoise. I added some blue toner with a dash of blue pearl and this was the result. The side cast reflects the blue pearl really well. I have the luxury of being able to paint with automotive colors since this is what I do for a living. Here is the Toyota . So you can see the difference. The clear coat is sherwin Williams HPC 15 . It is very thin. Not thick like some urethane clears. So it is in scale. But remember to mask up when you spray this. It is very bad for you. Do not spray this in your house even with a booth. It is very bad stuff for your health. Hope this helps. 1
Brudda Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 P.S.. I can tell you anything you need to know about automotive paints but I am a novice when it comes to model paints. I have tried them and cannot figure how you guys are getting a great finish with them. This is why I try to learn more about model paints.
