happy grumpy Posted November 19, 2021 Posted November 19, 2021 A lazy build, just out of the box (practically most of my builds ). Metallic acrylics from Tamiya, wet sanded and cleared. In all, a nice little kit. The sixties were sure a nice time to be alive. 1
Tommy124 Posted November 19, 2021 Posted November 19, 2021 Nice build and a nice color. It does seem to have a touch of "lilac" in it. What Tamiya color is that?
Classicgas Posted November 19, 2021 Posted November 19, 2021 Well done. Nothing wrong with out of the box. I usually build that way.
Geno Posted November 19, 2021 Posted November 19, 2021 All I can say is WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, beautiful Mario.
Zippi Posted November 19, 2021 Posted November 19, 2021 Yeah that's diffently a looker in my eyes. That color is really nice and the chrome.....man does it have a shine. Nice job Mario.
Steve H Posted November 19, 2021 Posted November 19, 2021 Mario…. The number of absolutely beautiful models you have built blows my mind. Makes me realize how slow I am! I love these Olds 442’s. This one has possibly the best foil work I’ve ever seen, and the paint is flawless. I would also like to know which colour that is please. Keep em coming. Cheers, Steve
TransAmMike Posted November 19, 2021 Posted November 19, 2021 Ohhh yeah Mario, great looking '67. Gotta get my built....some day? Beautiful?
espo Posted November 19, 2021 Posted November 19, 2021 Beautiful looking paint finish and the clean chrome trim really looks good .
Mike C. Posted November 19, 2021 Posted November 19, 2021 Very nice. I had a '69 many years ago but I always loved the '67. Mine was saffron/black int. Great job. Today everything looks like a melted jellybean.
Hi-Po Posted November 19, 2021 Posted November 19, 2021 Beautiful build and the chrome work is outstanding. I like it.
Dragonhawk1066 Posted November 19, 2021 Posted November 19, 2021 Looks very good! I did mine in a very similar color.
happy grumpy Posted November 20, 2021 Author Posted November 20, 2021 Thank you all for your kind words. Steve,I take no credit for the side chrome trim as they come as separate chrome parts, The windshield and window trim was done with Molotow chrome marker. The paint was a mix of metallic acrylics from Tamiya. I can't remember the exact ratio but there was silver mixed with copper and clear red. The top coat is TS 13 clear and some polishing. I had some years to build up a modest collection. I was a little shy of showing them since there is some seriously talented people in here. But you and others who commented gave me more confidence and encouraged me to strive to better myself. I really do appreciate the interest , This is a great place to share a common passion. I really do enjoy seeing your work I got a lot of inspiration from you guys. What I love about modeling is that you're only limited by your imagination. I see things here that I would never thought possible. to all of you a very big thank you for your kind comments. thanks again 1
Dominik Posted November 21, 2021 Posted November 21, 2021 very beautiful. that color is awesome and suits him very well. Nice pictures also with the bling on the wheelhouse ?
