rastta Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 (edited) Hadn't done a Mopar yet, so I decided to do the 1970 Hemi Cuda. Once again I used Testors Extreme Lacquer - this time Purple-licious, which was BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH close to Plum Crazy. I also went with the Extreme Lacquer Wet Look Clear this time and was very happy with the results. I hadn't done a clear on any of my previous models using this paint as I was happy with the finish - but I wanted to try something a bit different this time. Again I was trying to be as authentic as possible, although it was pretty difficult to find consistency with colors etc. that were used for different parts. I'm also not happy with the chrome window trim, but I might try and improve it. Edited July 28, 2019 by rastta
MrObsessive Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 Lookin' mighty nice from where I sit! Very neat work on the red stripe for the grille. NOT an easy thing to do!
Dragonhawk1066 Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 Very nice job! Nice detailing work on the interior and suspension pieces. I, too, am a fan of the extreme/one coat lacquers as I have painted four kits using those paints.

NOT an easy thing to do! Thanks - I have recently been focusing on my detail work and was hesitant to even try the stripe but went for it anyway.
Hmann68 Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 Sharp and clean! I’ve used Purplicious and it’s a neat color. Nice 1st Mopar, do some more ?
Geno Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 How can you not love a Plum Crazy Hemi 'Cuda? That is soooo sweet Joe, great job.
Snake45 Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 Very nice! The interior is particularly well done. Model on!
BeakDoc Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 Hard not to like a purple Hemi ‘Cuda. Especially one done as well as yours.
