I'll second that. I usually just spray it all one colour, flat it and flock the floor but this makes me want to try something with more colours.
2 or 3 clashing ones probably...

THANKS GUYS!! I LIKE TO ADD THE COLORS TO MY INTERIOR MAKES IT LOOK A BIT MORE CUSTOM I THINK!! WELL GOT MOST OF THE CAGE BUILT AND TRIED MY HAND AT HEAT STAINING THE HEADERS!!! ITS I BIT MORE SUBTLE IN PERSON THEN IN THE PICS!!

That cage looks good, headers do to!

Thanks guys!! well i am at the stage of my builds that its alot of little detail stuff!! this takes alot of time because i am very picky but i have a little detail work done to the engine with a ton more to go on it!!

and here we go after a duel feed fuel line and pressure reguloter(need to detail paint the face of the gauge yet)!!

Nice detailing!!

awesome mate, how do you keep your 'fuel lines' so straight while working with them? are they really stiff wire or something?

this is just detail master hardline!! i just keep running it between my pointer finger and thumb until it straightens out a bit!! its actually very soft wire!!

Got a little more done!! raditor sanded and painted as well as the trunk flocked and battery painted!! alot of detail wiring and painting left!!

Nice. Boot detail looks cool.

got some color on her today and if all goes well i should have it cleared tomorrow!! should i chrome foil the window trim or leave it the dark grey???

If it was mine I would BMF the trim, but I'm not a fan of painted trim on models. Plus I think it will suit this one with all the other chrome!

Nice - I really like the colour scheme.

The trim needs BMF, otherwise you should have shaved it IMHO.

what do you guys think about spraying it semi-gloss black???

How about using some bare metal black chrome? I've always wondered what you could use that stuff on but with this color
scheme I think it would look uber cool

ya i hear ya, but the only chrome that is left on this car is the outer wheel lip!! the bumpers i have dechromed and sanded of the bumperettes and painted the dark grey, and the grille i have dechromed and cut it up to put a photo etch grille in and then it will be painted!! wouldnt the bare metal foil be out of place around the windows and that then??

Mmmmm, good point, black may be the go on second thoughts, didn't realise you had dechromed everything.

ya, all but the wheels!! just lips will be chrome!! well i got her cleared and will get better pics later!!

Mmmmm nice and shiny...
