ambitious paint '41 Willys Pro Street curbside-ish

[Rider]

Stephen,Dave,Steve,Joe,Dave C, thanks for the continued interest and comments of support, they are much appreciated.

This truly was nothing more then a "let's try this and that and see how it looks project". It's been a fun exercise and yes at times tedious and patients testing. I learned lots and gained some much needed AB control experience. A few more things here and there and it might actually be done. 

I am thinking it needs smaller (shorter) rear tire's from the '41 Willy's street kit.

First couple coats of clear, many many to follow. And a final choice of colour and style for the wheel/tire combo.

Nice colour choice for the wheels Lloyd

[Rider]

Thanks Steve, not sure they really work or not.

[Intmd8r]

What about the colour used on the hood scoop?

[Rider]

I'll give that a go, thanks Steve.

A little mock up. Both set of wheels have been sprayed with colour change nail polish, one is a blue/purple one is blue/green.

Thanks Steve for the suggestion. 

Oh and I put in purple smoke side windows. 

[Intmd8r]

I like it-Looks sinister !

Only a pot smoker would put a dope leaf on their model, don't drink and drive, smoke pot and fly home

Norhing wrong with burning the green. And your point is?

Thanks Dave, already done as much wet sanding as I am going to bother with. I put 10 coats of 3part poly on it. It's actually pretty flat to the touch. Besides this build really was/is nothing more then an experiment in different techniques on one subject.

 

Thanks Shay.

Just find it amusing that's all, not a judgement. Cool model too.

All good Yahshu, I wasn't offended at all.
