karbuildr Posted January 27 Posted January 27 This Revell kit is very nice. Very well detailed, fit of parts is excellent, highly recommended. This one is sprayed in Tamiya TS-31 Bright Orange, a near perfect match for Chevrolet Hugger Orange, TS-13 Clear, polished and waxed. Decals went on nicely with no problems. Only very minor fit issue I had was the rear taillight/bumper wasn't an exact fit. It looked like that part in my example might have had a very slight warp. It also could have been my assembly technique. 17
DanL Posted January 27 Posted January 27 Very nice work... Orange has become the go to color on models recently... looks great
Jim B Posted January 27 Posted January 27 Great looking Nova. Very well done. I agree, it looks good in orange.

happy grumpy Posted January 28 Posted January 28 That's some sweet nova. I agree, it's an excellent kit from Revell. It really shines in that orange. great work sir. A very fine piece.
shoopdog Posted January 28 Posted January 28 Awesome looking build, love the orange and your excellent engine detailing.
johnyrotten Posted January 28 Posted January 28 Very clean looking build, awesome engine compartment.
Bills72sj Posted January 28 Posted January 28 That looks really sharp, well done. May I suggest you sand the tire treads to remove the seam and kill the gloss for more realism.
STU111 Posted January 28 Posted January 28 Very tidy looking Nova you have there! The grabber orange really suits this. These little Novas must have been a beast with a 427 nestled in that engine bay.👍🏻
espo Posted January 28 Posted January 28 Beautiful paint finish and color. The stripes and trim all look perfect. Like the engine details.

Geno Posted January 29 Posted January 29 (edited) David, I can't say any more than what's been said. It's a Grand Slam homerun.. I had a red/black interior 1:1 back in the day. Wish I'd kept it.💯 Edited January 29 by Geno
