The camaro





Well the car did finally get a color coat, but not the silver I had planned as an undercoat for the yellow top coat... The silver had gone bad and refused to co-operate! So now I am forced to experiment and see if yellow will work on copper, or if the car stays copper colored for the final coats. I will have to trial spray something else first and see what happens.

When spraying colors, the undercoat colors can radically change what the top coats turn out like. Try it out as you build by varying white, siver, and gold as an undercoat to see the difference. Even the primer colors can make a difference. Try to use lighter primers on lighter colors and darker with darker shades you choose.

Here are two more articles that I wrote on modeling. The next article to be released will be a guide for beginners to help get you started in the hobby and hopefully, to prevent some of the mistakes beginners make.

The first is on some of the things you can do with a model: found here

The second, what to do with all the spare parts you collect:
