Reason why I'm asking is cause I've been wanting to try something out and attempt to recreate this " junkyard battle" hotrod I sketched out and maybe you could give me some pointers and kinda draw me into the right procedure.
To answer your first question:

As for the "molding" question, its easier to have an existing car on this scale to build onto, a good example of what you're asking be XMDrifter's Project Werks (both Versions)

It does look awesome. I look forward to seeing the outcome.
Well I'm not gonna get at you like the others, I agree with you lol. Like I said I'm being rather OCD with this, I'm very upset that I can't get an exact color match but I have something fairly close. If it satisfies your OCD, when the putty goes on (next and 2nd to last step). The sanding step is going to even out all the fins, I just need to create the backing and clean up some open gaps.

(Honda Electron Blue for proximity of color)
