Got this one finished. An enjoyable simple build. Kit was alot better than I thought it would be.

WIP thread is here

My usual Tamiya TS-14 black,  this time I did polish with Tamiya coarse, fine, finish compounds. And waxed with Meguiars NXT Tech wax 2.0

Interior TS-49 bright red over coated with Alclad Klear Kote flat ALC 314.

Pegasus Chrome DZ's wheels, scratch built air tank and solenoids, 3D printed compressors and Lead City plaque.

That is just a spectacular build. The lowered stance and those wheels create a slick look. Great detail work and the polished paint looks superb.

That paint looks amazing! It's one of those kits that fly under the radar, probably because of the box art, it's widely overlooked. Excellent job on this, and that red interior looks spot on, very nice build!

Great job Luke! Wish I could get a black paint job looking that good. Do you use the can or airbrush and how many coats do you use?

Hi Luke, nice to see this under glass, it turned out beautiful. Black and red look great together, the black paint looks fantastic, and the monochromatic bumpers are just right.

Cheers, Steve

Wow!! Awesome Nova!! Your style/vision applied to this Nova really create and unique Nova that looks great. This would have to be the best gloss black paint I’ve seen on the forum ?
