Bills72sj Posted December 31, 2023 Posted December 31, 2023 This one is now done. Introducing Sapphire. She is painted with Testors Arctic Blue enamel and has a, factory optional, slate interior. The console was scratch built and photoetched power window switches were installed. It is the luxury version of a Pontiac after all. She is one of the sisters in my Big Girls batch build. 15 Quote
Yeah Nah Posted December 31, 2023 Posted December 31, 2023 Superb Grand Prix Bill! Love all 65 Pontiacs but to my eye the roofline on the Bonneville does it best. Quote

I learned that thinned Testors enamels airbrush really nice if you are willing to let them cure as long as possible. They also lay down glossy. 3 hours ago, Horrorshow said: Paint is amazing, so is the detail, awesome work ? Thank you, Jack. ? 2 hours ago, ewetwo said: That is a real beauty. Thank you, David. ?
