happy grumpy Posted January 28, 2022 Posted January 28, 2022 Simple kit but perfect to put on a shelve. Box stock. The paint is Tamiya acrylic Titanium gold with a few drops of copper and metallic brown. Ts 13 to top it off. I like to build those oldies, they maybe simple but they look great. thanks for looking. 3
bisc63 Posted January 28, 2022 Posted January 28, 2022 Great looking build here! These Buicks really are a handsome body style from one of GM's heydays of styling full-size automobiles. You really did this kit justice, it looks very believable as photographed, just a glance would make most folks think it's a real car. Very well done.
David G. Posted January 28, 2022 Posted January 28, 2022 The color mix looks perfect, nicely done! David G.
Geno Posted January 28, 2022 Posted January 28, 2022 That's a beauty Mario, I always liked the body style on the big Buicks.
Ace-Garageguy Posted January 28, 2022 Posted January 28, 2022 Looks great. One thing that stands out to me is the realistic appearance of the panel lines. Did you do anything special to achieve that look?

I use either black brown or gray depending of the base color. You want contrast but not too much hope this answer your question

Classicgas Posted January 29, 2022 Posted January 29, 2022 (edited) Very well done. Edited January 29, 2022 by Classicgas
AMT68 Posted January 29, 2022 Posted January 29, 2022 That turned out great and I like what you did altering the Titanium Gold. Another kit I have but haven't gotten to building.
The German Posted January 30, 2022 Posted January 30, 2022 Really a great Modell!!! Like it very much!!! ...and superbly presented. Really great diorama! Wunderbar!?
doorsovdoon Posted January 30, 2022 Posted January 30, 2022 Looks great in that colour, very nice build. Love this kit, I've built a few of these.
Toys4Don2 Posted January 30, 2022 Posted January 30, 2022 Looks great. I really like how you tweaked that color. I just used the Titanium Gold and it looks bland compared to yours.
