Dragonhawk1066 Posted October 12, 2022 Posted October 12, 2022 My version of AMT's 1967 Ford Mustang Shelby GT-350, I'm calling "The Great Pumpkin". Paint is Createx Pearl Tangerine sprayed over Anita's Galvanized Tin basecoat. The stripes are Decoart Extreme Sheen Obsidian with some Delta Black mixed in. It's cleared with Createx UVLS 4050 Gloss clear, wet-sanded, polished, and waxed. The interior is black craft paint, the chassis is a mixture of craft paints, as is the engine. I used Pegasus 19 and 23 inch Hella's for the wheels, and sprayed Tamiya Clear Orange on the Off The Sprue machined aluminum air cleaner. I added plug wires and door locks for extra detail, and Bare Metal Foil was used for the trim. It's a pretty nice kit overall, as it's mostly the same as the AMT 1967 Ford Mustang GT Fastback except for the front and rear ends. 10 1
Bainford Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 That is one wicked looking Mustang. I’m generally not a fan of big wheels on vintage cars, but this really works. Gorgeous paint, too. Very well done!
AMT68 Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 Another stunning build Craig. If I ever get an airbrush someday, I'll have to try these paints as you've developed some awesome looking colors.
70 Sting Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 This kit is my next build. Very inspiring work! You did a great job with the poor fitting front and rear pieces. Nicely done sir. ?
Pierre_tec Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 Great outcome! Hard to believe that’s an AMT kit, nice job
Maindrian Pace Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 Great build, color, and stance, it all comes together so nicely.
FLHCAHZ Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 Wow. That thing is Killer!! The color, stance, details are amazing. Very nice job.
Peter Lombardo Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 The color is perfect on this car, just beautiful. Great job on an old kit, it looks really fresh and ready for the street today. I really like this one.
espo Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 Stunning looking color and a beautiful smooth paint finish. The body trim is all cleanly done. Whilr the wheel diameter looks a little large to my eye, the wheels fit the wheel wells.
Koellefornia Kid Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 Great work, Craig! Paint and wheels are really nice!
1959scudetto Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 (edited) Though such big wheels are not to my taste, you have built an excellent model here, Craig - fabulous paintjob! Edited October 13, 2022 by 1959scudetto
