'71 HEMI Cuda WIP

Hello everyone! Thanks for looking and all comments welcome!!!

So I got a Hemi Cuda kit the other day from my good friend hemi hunter, and I have been doing a little work on it. I was a little confused about what color i was going to paint the body, cauz I'm actually on house arrest (lol), and my paint selection is a little limited to what I have. So i started off with a nice primer base, and found an Orange Mist Metallic Dupli-Color can in my paint box. Well i shot the car and actually ran out of paint, and its a $7.00 can of paint at Autozone. Well needless to say i slept on it for a night, what I was going to do with the color. So today I dug around in my paint box some more and found the Sea Foam Metallic paint I had used on my '40 Ford.

But after I shot the car with the new color, I didn't want two models sittin around that were the same color (at least the color not being black). So I got some black electrical tape, cut up a grocery bag and got to work on makin my Cuda a 2 tone ride!!! I picked out a Krylon Smoke Grey lookin color. The Hemi is Gloss Orange, so I'm going to work on a pinstripe between the two colors to break up the two colors and bring it all together.

 So here are some before and after pics of the car in the different paints I went through.

 

What do you guys think??? I will post some more pics of the pinstripe tomorrow when I get it done!!!

Thanx again for looking and Happy Modeling!!
