This is my latest build I've started, and one of my all-time favourite cars! The body has had it's paint, TS-8, and has been polished, no wax yet, as I still have to paint in the window trim. This is gonna' be built with some Work Meister S1 rims, and I think i'll paint the centres black or titanium gold, don't know yet. For some reason my camera finds it hard to deal with the colour red. Look at the left headlight, that is not a paint error, it's some kind of pixelisation abnormality from my camera.
Finished paintin' in by hand the window trim, front and rear bumper trim, panel lines and indicators. I always hand paint window trim and other areas, by usin' 50/50 thinned down X-18, these areas have 4 coats of the thinned down paint, and a rock-steady hand.
The chassis on this baby calls for Flat Aluminium, so I primered it and shot it with some Alclad II Aluminium #101. I love this paint, it's jus' callin' out for some weatherin' now! The other day I bought a 9B (ultra-soft) Graphite pencil and a medium soft charcoal pencil, these two items will work well weatherin' this chassis, along with my customary washes, as the chassis has a matt finish.
