KWT Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 Revell 98 Firebird Ramair kit... Testors Black, OOB build.. Was gonna add the decals I have for it, but they didn't cooperate... lol. Very nice kit.. I have built several of these for different family members around 1998, this is the first for me. Just as nice as I remember. As always, Thanks for looking!
D. Battista Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 Nice job on this one..! Nice and clean...!!
donb Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 Sharp model. Black paint is really nice too! Good job.
espo Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 Very nice clean looking model. I'd forget the decals since I think it would takeaway from how nice it looks without.

I was looking at it earlier and I kinda dig the look... and I realized I didn't put the license plate on it yet. I always seem to make them and then forget 'em.
FUSIONBOY Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 I loved working on those cars! Always road test your work.

Hawk312 Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 That looks great! Is that really Testors spray enamel black from the can? Or did you shoot it through an airbrush?
KWT Posted January 15, 2018 Author Posted January 15, 2018 It is Testors Black straight from the can. It's the laquer black though, not enamel. I do have a 78 firebird I started working on 20yrs ago that was done with black enamel rattle can. It had the finest finish I've ever done. Smooth as glass. Unfortunately was left a little worse for wear when the basement flooded. I don't have an airbrush... Wish I did... All I do is rattle can and brush the details.

echoxrayniner Posted January 16, 2018 Posted January 16, 2018 Jesus I forgot how ungodly sexy Firebirds can look when they're all black... Epic job, dude! Also you'll have 'em tail light meshes within a week and a half I hope!
