The paint/clear coat isn’t smooth like “glass”, it’s simply not smooth. It resembles the surface of an orange so it’s not reflecting light properly and it could look so much better than it does and could have much more depth ...like the bronco chassis photo the other day
Okay, thing is — tilt the can this way, tilt it that way, lift the can up, tilt it on a 37° angle toward the sun at 1:03 pm.
lol!!! Is anyone forgetting that you can’t tilt your Bronco, you can’t pick it up, and you can’t put it at the angle you want.
If you’re trying to convince yourself you...
Yesterday there was no white top option AT ALL. Today some engineer says there is....but on 1 color and WHITE frame! Lol, I’ll wait for build and price. Sounds fishy. ?
hmm...neither, but if I had to choose LB. I feel LB is still a bit lighter than the "classic" blue oval...but I guess it would depend on lighting...sorry, lol. These metallic paints are just that, unpredictable.
I've never seen AMB in person (obviously), but the photo by you above definitely looks perfectly exposed. The greyish center (area 51?) probably helped with that :)
My GT350 is Lightning Blue and I can tell you that those gas cans weren't even a close representation of the dynamics of Lightning Blue (not faulting the photos...just it's a hard color to capture). It looks very dark in those photos when LB actually has a shimmer almost. And especially expose...
One thing though. More I look at this AMB photo that was just posted it does seem LIGHTER than the BMW color. The paint is reflecting so much that I personally believe we’re not getting the whole story here. I don’t believe the camera is capturing the dynamic range accurately.
It’s in the sun. If it’s anything like my BMW color then it was A pretty dark drab blue when the light was dull. Didn’t bother me too much because I didn’t really drive the BMW in crappy weather or In the winter. Now the Bronco will be driven everywhere regardless of weather (obviously) ...so...
Will the orange tow hooks be painted in the color of the body -- perhaps an option to have body-painted hooks -- or perhaps trim dependent accent color? So far all the assembly line photos have black hooks.

lol! Exactly! Not sure which one would print best but that’s pretty damn good!! I believe the last one with black outline would be best. And base being the 3M metallic silver I keep going on about.
I might make the black stroke a bit thinner though. Perhaps 2-3 pt? is it an illustrator...
the horse is like what I’m thinking, was kinda wondering horse alone, without the badge behind it. Did you make it from scratch? Possible to put some “tail bones” in the horse? Lol
Nice though! You Know when terminators lose all their flesh? Just the silver skeleton? That’s kinda what I...
