bajaboy5b Posted January 1, 2012 Posted January 1, 2012 Very very nice job! wish i could build like you.
Janne Herajärvi Posted January 1, 2012 Posted January 1, 2012 It could not be any better for first build. Well done
groo12 Posted January 1, 2012 Author Posted January 1, 2012 WOW, very nice vintage Bowtie!!! Sorry, what do you mean by vintage bowtie?
Agent G Posted January 1, 2012 Posted January 1, 2012 The Chevrolet emblem resembles a bow tie, so say some, therefore an older Chevy is a "vintage bowtie". G
Dominik Posted January 1, 2012 Posted January 1, 2012 For your first model (i think, you are kidding ) it looks fantastic! Perfect pictures too! Well Done,Ray, congrats!
dimaxion Posted January 3, 2012 Posted January 3, 2012 Considering the Chevrolet Emblem was copied from a restroom wall in Paris , France , a bowtie is a compliment . Welcome and kudos on this build . Factory Stock is my genre . Excellent build . Thanx for sharing .
MrObsessive Posted January 3, 2012 Posted January 3, 2012 Wow! My first build was nowhere near what you turned out! That's nearly 35 years ago, and I didn't start to get reasonably good at it till years later. Congratulations! Very, very clean build!
groo12 Posted January 4, 2012 Author Posted January 4, 2012 Thank you. I know where all the mistakes are and there is quite a few things I am unhappy with. But that is part of the learning process and certainly doesn't detract from the enjoyment of building it.
The Modeling Hermit Posted January 4, 2012 Posted January 4, 2012 That is beautiful. I wish my first model had looked that good.

Welcome and kudos on this build . Factory Stock is my genre . Excellent build . Thanx for sharing . Just a digression...Since I'm in advertising and graphic arts, you got me interested in looking into the bowtie design, and while the version you mentioned is most accepted (from hotel wallpaper, not necessarily the bathroom), there are two other versions here plus interesting backgrounds of 4 other car logos. http://designshack.n...mous-car-logos/ Just to get back on track, that's a beautiful truck and quite an achievement for a first build.
