I had to sand down
the mold lines that were very visible.
Now the body-in-white
is shining..
I applied metallic
crimson spray paint to the body, and painted the inside. I scratched
the
paint on the window frame to expose the bare metal. (Now this is a
short-cut
for BMF application.. Underneath is bare metal already!!)
Then
I applied a clear
coat over the body.
I assembled the model.
The contrast in the
front is made by first painting with flat black, then scraping the
highs.
I also applied a clear coat on the headlamps and bumpers to prevent
dulling
from oxidation.
I scraped the rear
lamps to expose the metal and painted them with clear red. The licence
plate is also done by paint scraping.
And some more finished
photos...
