    Thanks Tim, as you know these kits have horrible seam lines and are difficult to attach limbs after paint is on but they are fun to paint and look at.

    Thanks for the comment Kerry, glad you like the build. I decided to mostly follow the box art but tried to be a little creative at the same time.

    Looks awesome, buddy!!! Real nice work, especially her skin tones, and all the little details everywhere...I have a couple of these in my stash: the DanceFloor couple(which I started on years ago) and the surfer holding the girl above his head...they have terrible seam lines, but as you have proven, still can be made to look very very nice...

    They take some work but I find the challenge fun. I also have the kit of the surfer holding the girl over his head, if I remember correctly it is quite tricky to get together and clean up the seams. I'll tackle it one of these (summer) days. 😎 Hope you give one of your kits a try.

    @@ModelCarMinion The Riding Tandem kit was a challenge of when to glue, when to fill gaps, when to paint, the instructions are kind of vague. Seem like HAWK wants you to assemble the whole kit then paint. I got confused and got her hands mixed up, had to amputate, pin and epoxy. Gave her a gold bangle, pink bows on her bikini bottoms and hair extensions (like the box art). Have fun with your kit.

    Everything on these two builds is done with craft acrylic paints. I went back to check my notes and for the Beach Bunny I mixed Coral with a few drops of Fawn, Brick Red and Dark Brown. Then I airbrushed a few coats over the model and sealed it with a matte clear. Then I dry brushed some red over the high spots to represent sun burn.
