cobraman Posted July 2, 2022 Posted July 2, 2022 Built this one as a fantasy as I have already built a stock out of the box one . I added a sheet plastic spoiler and made some rear flares with sheet plastic and putty . Paint is Tamiya TS - 60 Pearl Green and TS- 20 metallic Green for the roof . Clear is Duplicolor but not the 1K version that I like because I was out of it . Not perfect but I’m fairly happy with it . 3
TransAmMike Posted July 3, 2022 Posted July 3, 2022 They look great. I had no idea Baldwin Motion modified anything by Chevy's.
Snake45 Posted July 3, 2022 Posted July 3, 2022 (edited) 2 hours ago, TransAmMike said: I had no idea Baldwin Motion modified anything by Chevy's. Baldwin was a Chevy dealer; Motion was a speed shop/tuner that would work on anything. I know they did Pontiacs and am pretty sure they did some Mopars. BTW, nice model, you really captured the look and "feel" of these things. I have to find one of these kits sometime. Well done and model on! Edited July 3, 2022 by Snake45
vamach1 Posted July 3, 2022 Posted July 3, 2022 Great body work and the colors really go well together.
cobraman Posted July 3, 2022 Author Posted July 3, 2022 Thank you fellows. Good to have you back Snake.
BIGTRUCK Posted July 3, 2022 Posted July 3, 2022 They both look great Ray,nice clean builds. How many Cobras have you built vs. other vehicle brands. All the kits I ever built since the 60s I have never done a Cobra, I have an original issue and I think I may buy another and build one soon. 1
cobraman Posted July 3, 2022 Author Posted July 3, 2022 Thank you Bob and Ken. Ken I have built a lot of different types of kits but Cobras are for sure the one type I have done the most. I really have no idea how many I have built but but plenty for sure.
Zippi Posted July 4, 2022 Posted July 4, 2022 Mighty fine looking Ray. Both are great looking builds.
M W Elky Posted July 5, 2022 Posted July 5, 2022 Looks great. Did you use a base coat under the light pearl green?
cobraman Posted July 5, 2022 Author Posted July 5, 2022 Thanks Scott. Thanks Michael. As for the base coat it was just Duplicolor grey primer. Normally for a color like this I would use Tamiya white primer but I was out.
