Revell Miss Deal Studebaker Funny Car

[cobraman]

I really like this kit and have bought one at least 5 times . This is the only one I have built as intended . All the ones I built before I just used the chassis and different bodies . The kit bodies then were used to make fuel coupes . I have wanted to try the swirladelic style of paint for a long time so I decided to try it on this kit . Not really fond of it and won’t do another but at least now I did one for the heck of it . Never again !

Very cool! Nice job on the paint work!

Very nice Ray, I think the paint turned out extra nice I like it!

[cobraman]

Thank you fellows.

[NitroMarty]

Looks good to me!!!!!

Also one of my favorite "parts kits", I have used the chassis under numerous gasser builds.....

Like you, I also built one "as intended" (kinda)... I did mine way back in the early 90's...

I like the "Easter Egg Dip" paint treatment. Good looking engine and chassis also. 

[majel]

Very cool looking!  Good job on taking the painting "plunge", you are a braver man than  I.

[slusher]

Really nice Ray and different!

I like how the paint turned out! Looks cool! Great work! I’m assuming that this was a dipping process?

[cobraman]

Thank you guys. Yes Brian dipped into a bucket of water with some different colors of enamel paint dripped into the bucket.

Nice works. That paint suits the car. My attempts to do  swirldelic were a disaster.

[cobraman]

Thanks Bob. What happened to your paint job ?

[TooOld]

Glad to see you finally built a Miss Deal , great job !   Not sure why your paint didn't turn out like it should have , looks more like oil drops instead of swirled paint , still it is pretty cool looking ! 

[cobraman]

Thanks Bob.  Dropadelic ?  ?

[Chris in Berwyn]

I like the paint!  Looks good!  I did a Swirladelic on my Miss Deal too!

I ended up with a lumpy mess. An absutd amount of clear would have been needed and would have had been way too thick.
