I bought a can of paint sometime ago for another task and I really liked the color and thought it would be perfect for the body of this model kit. Had a few concerns on how it would ultimately turn out but those would be put to rest quickly as I think the paint turned out great. Note in one of the pictures a small red dot on the roof towards the front which I had to wet sand and repaint, oops. During my last move the hood ended up lost, so unfortunate.
