AMT 59 Chrysler Imperial

[Yeah Nah]

Land yacht time! The Imperial is a perfect example of the magic the US auto industry was producing the year I was born. 

Mixed artist acrylics to represent (hopefully!) Empress Blue main with Nocturne Blue on top. Future type clear over that. Chrome work is a combination of a cheaper Molotow type pen and kitchen foil. I've never seen the underside of a 59 Imperial but I'm guessing it's nothing like the kit so I didn't bother with any detailing there.

Thanks Round2 for re-issuing this one!

Very nicely done! I'm amazed that it is a combination of Molotow pen and kitchen foil!  Imagine what you could do with BMF!  The artist acrylics are also stunning! ??

Very well done, gotta love all that chrome on 50's cars. Nice colors, you took a very basic kit and made it shine.
