I got to go home for the weekend this past weekend, and while I was home I grabbed a bunch of pictures of my customs. I will post a different car or group every so often and I thought it would be fitting to start with pictures of the first custom I ever did.

I hand painted the entire car with a tooth pick. I don't know how it came out so even, but it looks like it was spray painted. I'm glad it turned out decent because it got me hooked. However I quickly learned that spray paint was a much better method for paint application.

Real nice Harristotle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The AC Cobra was my first Custom also.

Awesome first custom, and even put back in the blister (I haven't tried that yet). Stripes are always cool on a Cobra, and I love the detailed interior.
Great job!

If that's your 1st then good on 'ya- Excellent job !! Keep them coming

Well, you're a wizard with a toothpick! What paint were you using, if I may ask?

For my detail painting I use testors (this car was completely done with testors), but for spray paint like I've used on all my other cars I use House of Kolor, Krylon, or Testors depending on the color/price.

It really did turn out nice for a 'pick... hey, it turned out nice for a brush!

That's great. I remember my first custom also.

It looks great!~
