Mopar2 Posted March 3, 2023 Posted March 3, 2023 Very nice build...Great color.The diorama is really cool,to.
ewetwo Posted March 3, 2023 Author Posted March 3, 2023 Thank you everyone. When you are trying to use a can of paint with goo oozing out of the botton seam. You never know what to expect. I used the chrome pen and chrome foil. But I must have a package of the foil that was going around that doesn't really stick. So I ordered 2 more packages hoping I get the better foil.
ewetwo Posted March 3, 2023 Author Posted March 3, 2023 And I have to thank Ruben (Ruthless Styrene209) for the kit and the amazing job he did on the hood to make it stock looking.
AMT68 Posted March 3, 2023 Posted March 3, 2023 Great looking Impala David and the foil work around the trim is very neatly done. I had a couple of packages of foil last summer that had adhesion issues but since then recent sheets have stuck much better. First time I've seen one of these without the domed SS hood.
Engine 51 Posted March 3, 2023 Posted March 3, 2023 Will have to go a get one of these. Been eyeing one for a while, but after seeing how nice yours turned out....gotta get one.
Monty Posted March 3, 2023 Posted March 3, 2023 Wow, I didn't even notice the modified hood initially 'cuz that color just grabs your eye. Is it the same paint you used on your Aluma-coupe? Any chance I could get you to list the actual paint info (ex: Testors #1216 Blah-blah Blue). I guessed Testors because you mentioned a leaking seal on the can. Lots to like on this build. Nice job!
dragstk Posted March 4, 2023 Posted March 4, 2023 That was brave of you to spray with a can that leaks. ?. You were right, you dont know where it could go. But you did a fine job. Congrats!
ewetwo Posted March 4, 2023 Author Posted March 4, 2023 Thank you James, Jeremy, Tom, Joe, Monty and Jeff. I hope the new foil I got is better Tom. I thank Ruben as he did the hood. It builds nicely Joe. Thank you Monty and yes. Testors leaking cans. LOL Plus I used it on an El Camino and a 1960 Corvette. I had 2 cans. It’s Testors one coat Lacquer. Color 1836 De Ja Blue. Might have a new name now. You are right Jeff. It was a gamble. It has Testors wet look clear a then a coat of Pledge Revive floor polish on it.
