A-Bomb G-Machine

[Guest Dr. Odyssey]

I was inspired by the F-Bomb Camaro (real car) from a couple years ago.

Do I need to provide reference photos of the real car (F-Bomb) or will my simply alluding to it as inspiration suffice?

I have been working on this for awhile and it is finally at a point where it is something worth sharing.

I painted it with Floquil Railroad colors lacquer paints. The gray is actually mixed from Engine Black and Southern Green. The black is Engine Black. I made the insignias by putting old decals on tape and cutting them out to make masks and sprayed them off white. I did the same thing for the atomic clown explosion of the trunk but with a copy of the laser decal. I printed laser decals for the A-Bombs on the doors and the burning fuse is from a temporary tattoo that I put on clear decal paper.

Questions and comments all are welcome.

I was inspired by an F-Bomb once when I was a kid. My mom washed my mouth out with soap!...Actually that is a cool Idea. I can't wait to see it progress.

I got the wheels and tires done today and since it is mocked up I am just going to keep plugging away at it and maybe finish it. Not much to see in the interior - just did it box stock. No sense in wasting the time to shoot and post something that boring.

I thought I knew what you were up to with that title. I dig it! Here's one I did using the F bomb for inspiration. I was done a few years ago, the first completed model for me in decades. I like the art work on yours so much I might have to try something like that!

Cool! What body type is a Vette? Like A-Body, F-Body? Would it be a C-Body? C-Bomb? I think you'll need some pink paint. LOL Shake & Bake!

Thats funny, pink I just looked it up, 84 and later Vettes were Y bodies, so Y-Bomb would be ok, or V-Bomb for Vette. Thats sounds better!

"Y", "C", Same thing... LOL
