'69 Chevy Nova SS

Lost the weels and the shifter so this one will go in the garage

Finally completed my 69' Chevy Nova SS by Revell. It was a good quality kit. Very minimal amounts of flashing to cut or sand down. All the pieces lined up perfectly. I really enjoyed it.
I use the blue label Gorilla Super Glue. It's a medium vis and bonds fast when applied with a toothpick on the smaller components. For glueing along the lengthier parts, I put a small amount on a Q-Tip and run it along the piece. It applies cleanly, as the glue soaks into the swab very quickly. You can use the same swab a few times surprisingly.
My go-to brushes, also used on this project are: "Royal" # 12 & 10 shaders and 10/0 and 8 rounds. "Simply Simmons" # 2 round and 2 shader.
NOTE: Because acrylic paints dry super fast and are more likely to retain brush lines, for the painting of the exterior, I use a cheap black paint sponge (craft store or dollar stores), I dip the tip in a tiny bit of water, quickly tap on cloth, take on some paint and apply in one long stroke. This dries instantly but what lines may show, vanishes. Takes about 5 coats. Gloss paint is obviously better than the matte blue I used but it's what I started with so I stuck with it. A gloss sealer applied with the same technique gives a great look for an acrylic piece. About 3 coats.

For the paints;

Craft Smart:
Gloss Dark Yellow, Gloss Tuscan Rad, Matte Med. Brown, Metallic Silver, Gloss White, Matte Bright Yellow, Matte Tan, Matte Olive Green, Matte Ash Grey, Matte Deep Grey, Matte Silve Grey
