Let’s build a Mobius 65 Nova Gasser - Green Mamba

I am proud to present this build video of the Mobius 1/25 scale 1965 Chevy Nova Gasser plastic model kit.
The reason to build this kit came from two places: my model club is having a theme night of the 65 Nova kit on December 20th AND I saw that Donn Yost was building the same kit box stock. I hope that he brings his to the upcoming model contest in PA next weekend.
Thank you for watching this video, i would appreciate a thumbs up like and leave me a comment if uou enjoyed the video. Please subscribe to the channel and check out my other builds on the channel.
Wish me luck for a good showing at the contest 😁
Thanks
James

Super clean build James!! Came out looking pretty sweet!! Might have to open my kit up soon and build it.

Thanks for watching Joe👍 I mixed clear yellow with clear green with clear till I got the right shade then airbrushed it on the inside of the windows.

[@Aces_Eights_Scale_Vision]

Looks awesome! Do you airbrush the black on the inside of the body or did you brush paint it?

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

Hi ScaleG, I did mask the windows and airbrush the whole inside black.

[@richardschnarr7580]

how did you tint the green glass ? love that build

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

Thanks for watching Richard! The glass was airbrushed with a custom mix of Tamiya clear yellow wit some clear green and regular Tamiya clear. I couldn’t tell you the ratio. I sprayed the insides of the windows and the. Polished the outside with wax. I appreciate your support 👍

[@LeftCoastModelCarBuilds]

Very nice build, very clean paint work/detail. One question, do you use the Tamiya cements on painted parts as well as bare plastic parts?

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

Hi Left Coast, yes I do use Tamiya glue on both painted and non painted parts. Just a touch will suffice. Make sure it is in a corner or hidden spot. Thanks for watching 👍

[@LeftCoastModelCarBuilds]

@@ScaleModelExperiment great stuff! Thank you, I have been using it on bare plastic but hadn’t really tried on painted stuff. Thank you and great work!

Thank you Carl, I applied a semi gloss clear over the kit chrome.

[@bubbapipe]

Looks so sharp! Love the green. Did you have any fit issues with the kit?

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

Hi Ed, thanks so much! No problems at all with the kit. It does fit tightly body onto chassis. Patience is the key.

[@JohnnyActionFigures]

Beautiful. Can you tell me what type of glue you use to put together all of those painted parts? And what do you use to install your glass?

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

Thanks for watching Johnny, I used Tamiya extra thin cement to glue the painted parts and Canopy 560 white glue for the windows.

[@waynesworldofmodeling2574]

What paint did you use for all the metal parts

[@ScaleModelExperiment]

Hi Wayne, I used Tamiya lacquer Aluminum over black for all the metal pieces. It has a really fine metallic to it. Stay tuned for a behind the scenes video with all the details.
