Sixties Sam Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 Hey, guys, here's my first build of 2015 - a Revell Snap-Tite 57 Chevy. It was on sale at Michael's, so I bought it. It's an OOB build, painted with Testors gloss black with a tan and orange interior. Foiling took longer than painting and building! The seat cushion stickers were black, but I wanted orange, so I sprayed them orange, then applied them. It worked! It's not my best build, but it was quick and fun! I plan to use it on my car show diorama, since just about every car show has a 57 Chevy in it! The photos could be better, too. Comments welcome!
rmvw guy Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 Looks great and yes the seats worked. What a great kit in my opinion. I built one just to practice BMF and there is plenty on this one.
Duntov Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 I like these snap kits --- You proved with a little attention to detail -- some paint and foil you can turn out a nice looking car!!! Great Job!!
Danno Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 Nice. Nothing like the clean, classic lines of the '57 Chev!
Speedfreak Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 (edited) Nice job Sam, looks like you did very well on the foil, those vent windows can be tough and yours looks very smooth. Nice looking car, cool diorama too, fun stuff. Edited January 24, 2015 by Speedfreak
57peppershaker Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 This is a great 57 snap kit, nice looking build Sam. I've never thought about spray the self adhesive decals, they normally get tossed aside.
Sixties Sam Posted January 24, 2015 Author Posted January 24, 2015 Oops! I never noticed them! I just foiled them now. Thanks for catching that blunder, Lee! Sam
