68 Nova Modified

[modelmatt]

This is a first attempt to modify a box build. It's not perfect but I was happy considering it was trial and error.

First attempt!! Well i hope it's not your last, this has turned out just great,  it it obvious there were a few hic-ups, but nothing big,

and as long as you learn from them, the next one will be even better.  This is a great example of trying stuff.

 

VERY NICE BUILD..

I think you switched years with your GTO you posted, this is the '68 not '66. Both are very cool though.

Thanks guys, Got the year wrong. I threw the box out.

Another great build. You really have your paint jobs dialed in. Is this based on the Revell or the AMT kit?? The hood just looks like the AMT.

It was the AMT kit, The front fenders were separate. Thanks and yes it took a lot of trial and misses to finally get it right. If I could only keep the dust off, I wouldn't have to spend so much time sanding them out. lol

You did a really nice job on that tired old kit, and it's actually a '72 year model.
