Well, let's be realistic here--his Firebird daily driver is black, and most of the GNs I've seen are, too. |

What do you use to paint your bodies, Low Tech? I normally use Testors spray paint, but I also have an airbrush kit. It's a pain to set up, though, and an even bigger paint to clean up, so I normally don't use it. |

These look like Hot Wheels, so I doubt he'd spray paint them. |

Hot wheels? These are model kits. |

No, I'm pretty sure that he does these himself from plastic kits.
edit: yeah, what Skid said.

He even said they're models he made when he posted the Firebird yesterday. |

I built the same Firebird kit that he did, and it was 1:24. I think it's the perspective of the picture, makes them appear small. |

Probably regular 1/24th or 1/25th scale models. They aren't big, and with the right camera angle, they can look teeny. |

Yes, they are both 1:24 scale models, the GN came molded in black, but I panted it black anyway to give it gloss, the firebird was cast in white, so I used the same can of paint for it, testors spay paint for the shells, brush paint for the small parts, and genuine auto paint for some of the accessories |

Oh, and for doing fine areas, like the "BUICK" crest on the grille, or the black hubs on the rims, a set of paint markers is worth it to invest in, and get special windsheld cement, normal styrene glue will cause clear plastic parts to haze and bubble |

CRX - Heres the others I have finished..... The interior on the GN came out blue-grey, despite what it SAID it would come out on the can, but I'm still happy with it |
