lioniz Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Up for your consideration , this 1955 Chevy Gasser . My first build in almost 20 years. It was alot of fun and I'm learning more on each model I do. The chrome strips were painted on by 48 year old hands with the help of Maxwell house coffee , so needless to say I'll be attempting foil in the near future. Hope you like her and I'm ready for some critique . (mercy please!) Sam M. Crystal lake,IL.
Jordan White Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 (edited) Car looks great! Now all you need to work on is your picture taking skills! Edit: just looked at your other thread, yeah those cell-phone cameras aren't the greatest. Edited February 12, 2009 by YJIslander
randx0 Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 looks like you know what you are doing.I like the color you selected and it looks like you got the details right .from the pics I don't see any thing to criticize sorry . if you paint the trim again don't be scared to use tape not as an end all guard against errant paint but as a guide,try to get as little paint on the tape as possible and you will get good results . good luck and keep 'em coming!
RJWood Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Nice build Sam. Welcome back to the hobby. Now that your back to modelling you will find each new buid will be even more fun than the last. What paint did you use on your gasser? its a great color for that Chevy. Nice work under the hood.
fordh8r Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 A bit fuzzy on the pics but from what all I can tell it looks pretty good. I would think that better pictures would still do it justice though. I do like the color of this build. I think it works nicely for these old Chevys. Good job!
lioniz Posted February 12, 2009 Author Posted February 12, 2009 Thanks guys, I'll definitely work on the photo skills! Sam
MADmodelDOCTOR Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Nice '55! Great color choice. Try to order your foil direct from Bare-Metal. It will be reasonably fresh. Cool avatar by the way. later,
