So, pretty awarding thing happened yesterday as a friend asked me to build a 1950 Chevrolet Stepside kit. Its a used kit with the engine partially built and painted south some parts of the sprue. But luckily the body and everything else is still virgin plastic. He chose a stock two tone scheme of Grecian Grey and Windsor blue. Let's hope i can keep the run of great finishes going on this one!

Cool looking truck
Good for you on the "job"
You would be surprised how well a stained coffee stir stick can look on a scale model

thank you! I had the idea of using the sticks to build the bed rails, but dont know if he wants them or not. But the photo was his color reference. Ill be using Scalefinishes 1950 Chevrolet Two tone Grecian Grey/Windsor blue.
