crazyjim Posted September 15, 2013 Posted September 15, 2013 My latest completion is this Nova that's painted in HOK lapis blue basecoat with HOK magenta kandy over that. I'm pretty sure the wheels came from the Revell'32 5 window coupe and I painted the spokes to look more magnesium. I tried the BMF before paint for the fine scripts - and I need to do more work on that technique. 1
Harry P. Posted September 15, 2013 Posted September 15, 2013 Looks good from the outside, those wheels are among my all-time favorite styles ever. Not too wild about that interior color scheme or the lavender chassis components...
realgone58 Posted September 15, 2013 Posted September 15, 2013 Yes, the wheels look great on it. Nice paint. Shiny!
crazyjim Posted September 16, 2013 Author Posted September 16, 2013 Thanks very much folks. The final color was supposed to be more purple.
beeRS Posted September 16, 2013 Posted September 16, 2013 This is one of my favourite AMT kits and you have done a fine job here. Looks great on those ARE wheels - I'm pretty sure you're right; they do come from Revell's 32.
crazyjim Posted September 16, 2013 Author Posted September 16, 2013 Thanks, Sonny. It's a very nice kit to build.
W-409 Posted September 16, 2013 Posted September 16, 2013 That is one Super Nice - and of course SHINY Nova! That paint job is truly amazing and all of those little details whether they are in the engine bay or body, they look excellent. This might be one of my favorite builds I've seen from your bench, and I've seen some super nice builds from your bench earlier too.
bbowser Posted September 16, 2013 Posted September 16, 2013 Nice engine bay details and the scripts came out well in the photos. Good job!
Chris White Posted September 16, 2013 Posted September 16, 2013 Jim, those wheels are beautiful against the black.
crazyjim Posted September 16, 2013 Author Posted September 16, 2013 Thanks, Chris. Actually, the body is a very deep purple. That's why I went with the lavender and red interior & undercarriage. Maybe I'll do an outdoor pic in the sun and post it.

Renegade Posted September 16, 2013 Posted September 16, 2013 Great looking little Nova. Color looks great and wheels are perfect.
Sixties Sam Posted September 17, 2013 Posted September 17, 2013 Very nice build! It looks kind of sinister in that almost black color. Great engine details! Good work! Sam
