You did a fine job on this build HH, especially being hand painted. The paint job looks real good as do the emblems. Very good trim work and the detailing on the interior looks great. Very very nice engine and engine bay. Good work buddy! hand-clapping-smiley-emoticon

First one to the finish line!! Nice!
I was just thinking the exact thing, Dennis. Back when I was a kid and I started painting, a brush is the only thing I had. As much as I painted with a brush, mine never looked this good. The trim looks pretty clean and the emblems look great too. Great job. For the hose its missing, may I recommend finding a small black cable from any old electronic and add it. IT would add that finishing touch I think.

I built about 300 models in junior high and high school with no detailing and all brush painted, as you said, a brush was all i had and detailing was unheard of then. That's why when I got back into the hobby I was blown away by how far it has come. It's really good to see though.

Yeah, someone suggested I do some sort of diorama. Since I don't have one, I decided to do a perspective shot using the TV to make it look like a drive in. Luckily, the TV stations here aire old B-movies on Saturday nights.
