iamsuperdan Posted January 16, 2021 Posted January 16, 2021 Knocked out a quick one. Just a rebuild of a damaged AMT promo kit. Colours are Tamiya Gloss Aluminum and Duplicolour GM Slate Grey Metallic. Interior is a few shades Of Tamiya TS colours. Added some flocking, made some gauges.
AmericanMuscleFan Posted January 16, 2021 Posted January 16, 2021 Nice job Dan! It's always a nice gesture to save an old promo kit. Nice touch on the gauges by the way, printed on an inkjet printer I guess? ?
charlie8575 Posted January 18, 2021 Posted January 18, 2021 Looks good. The silver/grey two-tone wasn't seen much, but it looks nice. Charlie Larkin

I know these technically are not GMT400 gauges, but they look good, so I used them. 13 hours ago, charlie8575 said: Looks good. The silver/grey two-tone wasn't seen much, but it looks nice. Charlie Larkin Yeah, kind of a different colour scheme. I was inspired by a truck at this year's Barrett Jackson.
vincen47 Posted January 19, 2021 Posted January 19, 2021 Promo upgrades are a great way to get a whole lot in much less effort, compared to a full kit. Perfect for when we need the satisfaction of completing something, but in a shorter amount of time. This is a great example. A really nice looking model.
iamsuperdan Posted January 19, 2021 Author Posted January 19, 2021 Thanks! Super quick slump buster. I have quite a few more of these to work my way through!
Metalbeast Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 Great resto! A buddy of mine had one in the same colors as your model but his was a GMC. it was also a lot less shiny and a lot more rough, lol!
