Dragonhawk1066 Posted April 10, 2019 Posted April 10, 2019 Got the base color for the interior done in Apple Barrel Craft Acrylic Khaki, and the carpet in a mixture of the Khaki with some Brown added. Just have to go over the seats, dash and door panels with some Satin Clear to add a little shine, but not too much. Not the actual ride height, but hopefully pretty close.
Gramps46 Posted April 10, 2019 Posted April 10, 2019 Looking real good. I like the color as the Brits call this Linden Green and used it on GT40a and others. Is this green paint a metallic?

The color is Tamiya TS-60 Pearl Green sprayed from the can, with a couple coats of their clear.
espo Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 I wouldn't have thought of that color for a Corvette, but seeing it I think it will look great especially with your interior color.
Tommy124 Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 The color combo looks promising... And that is one nice kit, have fun with it. I built mine with the custom wheels aswell, but left the body at "natural" ride height.
NOBLNG Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 Very nice. I recently built one of these too. I think that color will look great once all the rest of the chrome is on it.

I really like the color and picked it because i think it doesn't look too wild and would look good with either the stock or custom wheels.

I certainly can't wait to start building it, just the engine/trans and a few more smaller parts to paint and it will start to go together. Ride height will probably end up just like yours.
robertw Posted April 14, 2019 Posted April 14, 2019 That's going to be a colour selection to burn your eyeballs out. I look forward to seeing it done.
