One more Castrol Tom's Supra GT

Hi guys. I'm new to this forum and the world of modelling. I recently completed my fifth model, but I've a question regarding the paintjob. In the completed pictures at the bottom, you can see that the paint looks uneven, but it felt completely smooth to the touch. This did not happen to 3 of my previous models. Anyone can enlighten me as to why this happens?

BTW I used Tamiya White Surface Primer right onto the plastic shell itself, followed by many coats of TS (Pure White), then after the decals had been applied, I gave many coats of Gunze Sanyo UV-Cut Clear.

These are the Final Stages of my WIP pics:




These are the pics of my completed model:

Re: One more Castrol Tom's Supra GT

nice clean build, seems like its a little think in the back, try more lighter mist coats while finishing with one or two wet coats. Other than that it looks perfect, i would give white cars a little lighter panel lines. Top notch, share some photos of the scion!

Re: One more Castrol Tom's Supra GT

i like it but the panel lines (for me) are too strong. maybe you can use gray.

Gee thanks for the tip guys. I'll definitely use grey for my panel lines on my next white car.
