What a fantastic build!

The panel lines are highlighted just so good, not too heavy and not too light. It makes the finish model so much more realistic.

Did you do a black panel lines under coat or a wash after color coat?

Thanks for sharing.

Preshading on panel lines from airbrush -> Main coat of body color -> Postshading on panels with the little bit brighter color than the main (airbrush) -> Washing with oil paint.

Thanks for the detail description for the panel line treatment. Doing a good and realistic panel line is sometimes harder than a shinny top coat.

This is really well done and I really like it.

These are fun to build OOB, I did one with my son and it was straightforward build with such tight tolerances that you do not need any glue. Wonderful engineering.

Another nicely done little gem!

I like the sport cars of the 60s.

I love to do a Bandai SW kit every now and then too.
I always have doubts if i should paint them.
Yep, same issue. I'm on the fence regarding that. Built oob with the prepainted (or coloured plastic) they look decent enough to be presentable. However, I think you can add a lot of realism by giving it a matte finish and maybe a couple of washes. I think this may require a trial object (Tie fighter / interceptor) before I go mental and do that with the big scale Falcon (and fubar it ;)).

That aside I love how the model turned out and I like that you didn't add the silly laser beam pieces to it :)
And the Honda is also really well done. The reflections on the sides give it a bit of a rough look, that I don't think is on the model but something in its environment.

Good job, Anthony!
