Nacho Z Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 (edited) This model was a quick "slump buster" for me. Minimal work on the chassis and interior. I had never used gold as a base coat before. I wanted to see what it would do with Tamiya TS52 - Candy Lime Green. I also like to play around with lighting, backgrounds, etc. Here are the results. Hope you like it! Same angle, softer light. I also took pictures on a black background. I'll share two to let you see how it changes how you see the car.

MikeyB08 Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Love the color!! I'm not brave enough to tackle bright colors like that. Love the backgrounds. Black has more character to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinfan5 Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Are sure this is not the AMT kit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Geiger Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Are sure this is not the AMT kit? Pretty sure it's Revell. It's one of the cars they use for the Make and Take programs. I built one too. Just fun to paint and detail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom, I forgot all about the Revell version, I was only thinking about the glue version, it looks like AMTs kit, my mistake Nice job on the Camaro, it does look good in the shade of green Edited April 16, 2013 by martinfan5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nacho Z Posted April 16, 2013 Author Share Posted April 16, 2013 Thanks for the comments guys! Are sure this is not the AMT kit? As Tom said, this is Revell's Snap-Tite kit. It was just a quick build and it gave me the chance to try something new, (gold base coat). BTW, I really like the way they paint turned out over the gold. I will try some other colors this way.

CJ1971 Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 It's exactly what you want from a "slump-buster"! Well done! People shouldn't be scared to try different paint schemes etc in this hobby... It's all about trying different things ;-) Cheers Cliff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
