Jurva Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 Plymouth offered "Mod Top" option back in the day, so that was the inspiration. Vinyl top texture is painted with airbrush. Then flower nail decals added on top one by one. Washi tape with flower pattern used for seats. Floor mat is painted embossing powder. Self mixed light green paint. 20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STU111 Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 Wow! There’s a lot of detail work in that vinyl top. Awesome work. ?? Certainly was one of the more “out there” options available for car buyers back then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksnow Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 Great build. One of those is on my to build list for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ncbuckeye67 Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 That looks amazing, both inside and out! What do you use to glue your embossing powder down? I use Elmer's white glue or Mod-Podge, and if I paint over it, the paint causes the powder to "clump up" and look like BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuckyg1 Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 Nicely done. Never would have thought to use nail decals, great idea. Love the body color too, not to mention the interior detail. Very nice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
