Ditto. I've just painted a Firebird in Tamiya red, got the same great gloss straight out of the rattle can.

Looks great. All the contrast of the different colors and the clean workmanship make it a nice piece of eye candy.

The pictures here aren't cropped that good, I am trying a different light
source to see if I can get a truer color. The pictures I did in tungsten
light have been balanced but still look too orange, tomato red. These
were shot in fluorescent light and balanced for that. Look a bit truer
to me.---John

Almost done, on hold for a bit until I get more paint. I have to build the
air cleaners, brackets then paint them the body color. I also need to add the
mirrors and a few decals.---John

Thanks.Here's a couple pictures before I finish.It should be done in a few days or early next week.
I have all the decals on and need to build the air cleaners and brackets, then paint them and
the windshield wipers. Then add the mirrors and it's done. The hold up is paint. I ran out.---John
