BeakDoc Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 Beautiful Firebird! Interior detail is truly a lobor of love and your build certainly shows it. The entire thing is just top-notch.
bogger44 Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 Love the aggressive, day two look you gave it. Great work on all aspects.
Lovefordgalaxie Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 The car looks great!! Nice color!! The trim around the windows, and the wipers would benefit from foil. Painting, even with the Molotow pen doesn't give the same realistic effect of foil. At least that's my oppinion. Other than the foil, I think the only thing I would have done different, is painting the floor pans in primer, and body color overspray.

Thanks, you're right I should of did the whole thing in foil, bottom molding is foil, I been getting into it more, next build willl be all foil, I like the black floor pan I think it shows off the detail more, I have done the primer & over spray on other builds that have separate frames & floor pans
donb Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 Nice paint, nice engine detail, extraordinary dash detail (love the key), nice overall look. Exceptional work.
DumpyDan Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 Well done, has to be one of the best looking Firebirds I have seen built.......Real nice work.
iamsuperdan Posted April 25, 2018 Posted April 25, 2018 This could be the nicest Firebird build I've seen around here. Love it.
heyjohnxx Posted April 25, 2018 Posted April 25, 2018 Great looking Firebird. I've got a couple of these in the stash and it's nice to see one built. One of them may get the OHC six.
E. Raza Ronny Posted April 25, 2018 Posted April 25, 2018 THe jewel of the presentation is the dashboard. Love the detail work. Radio and key ring especially. Are the front wheels permanently turned?

BigTallDad Posted April 25, 2018 Posted April 25, 2018 You did an excellent job on everything...engine, interior, those tiny bits of chrome trim At the risk of being a naysayer, the paint job, while superb, is too "flaky" for my taste, as in too much metal flake for that scale.
thatz4u Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 very detailed Firebird, how many hours, months, years did it take to complete???
Ulbo Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 One of the best model in this scale I have ever seen. Congratulations!!!
