I tried doing some airbrushed flame jobs in the mid-90s. I did about four or five, mostly for stories or book segments.

This is an AMT/MPC '91 Chevy C1500 promo. I added a GMC grill from the custom Dooley snap kit, lowered it, and installed some Pegasus wheels. Mirrors are from the 454SS kit. The interior for this truck was featured in a story on detailing dashboards and interiors so the dash is the most detailed part of the model. Everything else is just out of the box.

I used Baremetal foil to mask the flames, and did the pinstriping with a hawk quill pen and acrylic drawing ink. Once that dried, I could overcoat the paint with some lacquer clear.

The tailgate is my favorite part.

Thanks for bringing these older builds back Terry.

It's alot less messier than going thru stacks of "ScaleModelCar" magazines.
