csoukoulis Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 Since Pro-Touring/Bagged cars are my favorite style, Ive decided to build a few in that style. Paint is testors one coat lacquer, and wet look clear. Interior is dupli-color tan interior paint. wheels are Pegasus hobbies 19/23 combo. had some motor fitment issues so this one is a curbside (i think that's what its called, this is my 4th model LOL). applied BMF to the trim and side vents. i know i need to touch it up a bit, but for now im pretty happy with my 48hr build I hope you enjoy the pics as much as i enjoyed building it!!

charlie8575 Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 Pro/Touring is my least favorite style, but I must still respect a clean execution. This counts as that. Nice work. For your scripts, try either dry-brushing the scripts with chrome silver or putting foil on prior to the paint and using a 4000-grit polishing cloth to remove the paint, revealing the foil underneath.

Charlie Larkin thanks for the tip! ill try the polishing cloth method next time!
Rick R Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 I like that a lot! Since you don't have to go completely stock with a Pro-Touring car, how about using some stoplight red in the rear grille grooves between the taillights? Pro touring cars are all about the details, and that would be a prototype-style styling trick.
csoukoulis Posted September 6, 2010 Author Posted September 6, 2010 Coool! thanks! what is that car in your avatar? it looks cool!
