Here’s part of my latest project. I’m not pleased with the pictures, but I wanted to throw them out anyway and share what I’m working on. I’ve had my eye on the Revell ’60 Impala for some time but wasn’t sure what I wanted to do with it. Once I decided to try and mix a flat and gloss black paint scheme I was off and running, unfortunately my skill set didn’t match my mind set.

I say “part of my latest project†because I’m working one two Impalas. I’ve always enjoyed before and after pictures so the premise is a restoration diorama. I’ll keep you all posted. Thanks for looking and reading.

Slowly coming along on my restoration project. Here’s some “before†shots. In a week or two I'll move all this mess over to the Dioramas.

Actually you have a good thing going there with your paint scheme, it's a really good idea mixing the flat with the gloss, though it did not turned out as planned it still looks really awesome! Experimenting can be so much fun :( ! I will be watching this one.

I put a little time in last night and added the BMF and did some body work. The BMF went on better than expected ...and may become a must have for all future builds!
