**57 chevy** chromed out!

Been a while, but I've been busy. here's something I've been working on.

revell kit, got it off ebay and it has it's good moments and it's bad ones as well. The rear right 'a pillar' came broken so I had to do what I could to make it look credible. Nevermind the dates on the camera




following primer and tap job

interior with the side panels redone with styrene tubes





after some sanding/polish and bmf

That's a beautiful paint combo, and some nice foiling work. Keep it up, and keep us posted!

Hey,

Paint looks nice so far. Excellent work on the chrome trim. Any ideas for wheel n tire setup? Keep up the great work.

Re: **57 chevy** chromed out!

Nice colorscheme. Interresting color separation line in the front Isn`t it supposed to be vertical from the headlight and down? But honestly never mind my comments, the model looks nice !

did some work....I like how things came out. This is an old kit, so I wasn't too surprised at the bad fitment, but I made it work. Pretty fun






These show the true color of the car much better than the rest
