Yes T that's awesome! And Chris I may have to individually lag my pots of paint lol, I actually noticed my Tamiya paints were gloopy tonight, I had to give them some vigorous mixing

 

[Elm City Hobbies]

I had asked the question about frozen paint to Alex Vallejo, one of the owners of the Vallejo company, since I do live in the Great White North, otherwise known as Canada, and I wanted to know about shipping the paint during the winter, and he told me that yes they can freeze, but once thawed and mixed back up, the fact that they froze should have no effect on them.

If you have a problem with paint freezing and not going back to normal once thawed and mixed back up...contact Vallejo, they will pretty much bend over backwards to make sure the customer is happy.

So happy to see someone sharing this build with the rest of us. I want to pick this kit up soon. Thank you for giving me a peek at the kit.

 

[TRM]

Your welcome Joey! Thanks for stopping in! As the kit goes, not as detailed or as much as in the newer ones out there, TBH. However, these have "the look" to them being the old Chevy's we grew up with seeing pimping the roadways! With some tender loving care, it can be build up to something special. The price is right too!!
