Watson style '59 Skyliner

I am just about speechless. I can't say how cool I think this model is! Renaud "ZED" Legardez painted this car twice and the 2nd time around could not be better! He started with one of the Revell "multi peice" body kits. To begin with, these kits were crude but he made them look beautiful!

When blah becomes BLAH.....

And all the sudden out of nowhere comes something that is no longer BLAH! Renaud (ZED) Legardez , member of Traditional Rod and Kustom in scale and a Gold Member of the Drastic Plastics Model Car Club is working on this sweet Watson style '59 Skyliner. I about jumped out of my skin when I saw photos of this posted on TRaK! In fact, this paint job/project has me motivated to try the same on a '60 Buick I am building.
This is not the first time I have seen this done on a model car/ 1/25 scale....but the pattern and colors REALLY did it for me!

Timeless Inspiration

If I could only paint like this. David Garcia is one of the best known builders of Lowriders and Customs on the West Coast. I used to buy LRB back in the day and see his cars in there a lot. Now with today's great internet, I run into him on LIL and TRaK as a member. He has built some of the most extreme replicas I have ever seen in 1/25 scale. All work is by masking and air brushing.
