Pat Cardz Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 Here's what I'm working on, Converting AMT's 84 GMC 4x4 in to a street truck. Been trying to get back into working on kits again so I had hoped this would be a quick build, yeah right Pat! I've only finished two models in the past two years. Just haven't had the time, with the new family and all, but I'm committed to making time again, so Ill start with this one. Been working on it for about a month now, Ill try and get you guys up to speed. Here's the body. Candy Red and Lime green. The green was done a couple year ago, the finish shows, slight runs and a couple spots on one side. I just added the red recently, not too concerned about being the paint being "perfect". Just trying to have some fun. clear coated polished stripe was done with a fine tip sharpie More soon.
Guest Mustang3.8 Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 Excellent work, Pat. That is a great colour combo.
RodneyBad Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 Looks to have polished up really good. Nice colors. I've only completed 1 1/2 in 5yrs. but I'm having fun doing it. Welcome back..
Dingo Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 Nice colours luv the pin stripe is that a free hand job or did U use tape either side to get a straight line. Dingo
Pat Cardz Posted July 20, 2009 Author Posted July 20, 2009 Thanks guys!! Dingo the stripe was done free hand just followed the ridge of the paint. Ok here is the interior, everything is just mocked in nothing has been glued in yet.
