65 COMET CYCLONE

Beautiful clean accurate build of a kit I never get tired of seeing built and displayed here. Something about the styling and stance of these ‘64-65 Comets, they just look like they’re screaming by even when they’re standing still. You did a particularly nice job on your window frame foil work and slightly orangey red metallic looks good with the yellow decals. I’m about to start this same Dyno Don comet and hope I do half as a good a job as you’ve done on yours.

Thank you! I agree, they look fast sitting still. I appreciate your compliments much. The foil is almost a necessary evil for me. It's far from perfect but much better than I can do with paint and shaky hands. I look forward to seeing yours.

very clean build, what color did you use ?

Thank you very much! My apologies for the slow reply. I haven't been able to get on here lately. I used Testors Extreme Lacquer "Flaming Orange".

I'm glad this resurfaced, I missed it last fall.  Really nicely done and beautiful looking model.  Great color choice.  I have to look for this kit now!

Thank you much!
