Howard Cohen Posted July 6, 2016 Posted July 6, 2016 (edited) Revell '65 Impala Foose kit, painted testors White Lightning with some gold trim added to the wheels, interior, rear bumper and on the Lindberg chrome treadplate base Edited July 7, 2016 by Howard Cohen photos
Harry P. Posted July 6, 2016 Posted July 6, 2016 White Lightning? Am I missing something? I see gray primer...
Watertown Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 Ultra-restrained and austere approach on this one, Howard. I think I hear heads exploding all over the forum.
Howard Cohen Posted July 7, 2016 Author Posted July 7, 2016 Testor's White Lightning is a very transparent metallic/pearl white, almost like a candy. If you see primer, get your eyes checked
Lovefordgalaxie Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 On my scream the color looks like the same light gray AMT bare plastic has on some older kits.
Lovefordgalaxie Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 White Lightning? Am I missing something? I see gray primer... I won't say it isn't White Lightning, as I never saw it before, but it looks like the very same gray color as the plastic on a AMT '66 Galaxie I'm working right now.
TarheelRick Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 My screen shows it as a really nice looking white, especially in the bottom photo. Great looking build.
Jantrix Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 White Lightning is a pearl paint. I suppose lighting has a lot to do with how it looks in photographs. Howard, it's a good looking Chevy. I just wish you'd completed the foiling.
Howard Cohen Posted July 7, 2016 Author Posted July 7, 2016 I left some of the trim without foil as it looked too heavy with it. I wanted the gold trim to be stronger.
