cobraman Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Built from the used to be Badman kit . I shy away from using black because I never have good luck with black . This model was no exception ! Anyway , only the front tires were a non kit item . Car was primed with Duplicolor and then black base using the rattle bomb paint from the Roth paint kits . I did the roof with a metallic paint again from the Roth paint collection . Clear is Tamiya . Kit decals . Molotow trim . Looks like time to buy a new pen as it wasn’t exactly chrome anymore . I think it turned out ok but just ok . 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave42 Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 (edited) Nicely done. You can never go wrong with Black, IMHO even considering the hassles you mentioned. Can be aggravating, but I think everything looks good in Black. Edited February 15, 2023 by Dave42 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
