BKcustoms Posted May 4, 2013 Posted May 4, 2013 I've had this kit for a while now and I recently decided to build it to practice some painting techniques. I built it a curbside so there isn't any engine detail and I added a set of pegasus wheels to complete the lowrider look. Thanksfor looking! let me know what you think. Billy
Ace-Garageguy Posted May 4, 2013 Posted May 4, 2013 Very clean. Nice layout, masking and airbrush work.
Phizz Posted May 5, 2013 Posted May 5, 2013 I didn't know what to expect clicking on the thread. That Paint blew me away. Beautiful!
Harry P. Posted May 5, 2013 Posted May 5, 2013 I agree that your paint looks great... but a "lowrider" should have smaller wheels and ride, you know... low. It almost looks like your is is actually riding higher than stock!
BKcustoms Posted May 5, 2013 Author Posted May 5, 2013 Thanks everyone! I'll do a tutorial on the next one. Harry, i completely agree that it sits too high but most of today's "lowriders" have hydraulics that lift them way higher than this so I think the height is acceptable.
Sean W Posted May 5, 2013 Posted May 5, 2013 The paint turned out great Billy, good work. Gives me ideas for a couple pro streeters Im slowly working on. Keep it up, cheers.
slusher Posted May 5, 2013 Posted May 5, 2013 Beautiful Corvette, awsume paint, and wheels. l would not change anything..
TheRX7Project Posted May 5, 2013 Posted May 5, 2013 That paint is killer, and looks really good on that car.
CrazyGirl Posted May 5, 2013 Posted May 5, 2013 amazing paint work , I sure would like to know how you do that
Eric N. Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 I got to see this in person today-Very nice paint! Eric
Stuntman Mike Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 (edited) I was never a fan of the corvettes, but I have to admit that this one looks so good that I want one for my own collection. I love the way you have done the rear quarter panel design. It perfectly follows the lines of the body. Without the blue field on the door's front half, I'd call this a perfect car-matching paintjob. I also like the stance of the car. Looks totally convincing. What kit did you use for your build? Edited May 7, 2013 by Stuntman Mike
BKcustoms Posted May 10, 2013 Author Posted May 10, 2013 Thanks guys! Kevin,I used the Monogram "Classic Cruiser" 82 corvette.
