My Two Model Cars

[Tinky]

Hello,

I am new here to the forums and this is my first post.

After several years away from building model cars as a kid, I recently decided to jump back into the hobby. I am trying to build one model a month and have so far built two cars and two trucks. I will post the trucks in the pick-up truck section.

This is my first model after many years. It is a box-stock AMT 2006 Chevrolet Camaro Concept. I painted the exterior with Testor's Purple Gloss and the interior with Black Gloss (kit came molded in red). I painted the roof to look like the car had a T-top. This model was built back in March 2014. Overall, this was fun kit to build and I am fairly happy with the way it turned out. Yeah, I know it looks pretty bad but that's alright with me (first model in years)!

This next model is a Revell Dodge Magnum SRT8. The exterior is painted with Testor's Red Gloss and the interior with Red, Silver, and Black Gloss. I personalized this model a bit by painting the fenders, skirts, lower parts of the bumpers, and the tail lights with Black Gloss, which was a pretty big modification for me at the time. This was built in May 2014. I am really happy on how this one turned out.

That is all for now. Hope you all liked them!

Currently working on a not-box-stock AMT 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS (Jack Reacher Issue).

Thanks!

Nice work.

Welcome back to the model building world. I'm not sure about your statement about the Camaro being pretty bad. I thought it looked very good for a comeback model.
