Completed C6 Corevette

Here is my completed Revell 2005 C6 Corvette. The paint is tamiya red metallic. I painted the wheels silver for a more realistic loo. As well I cut out the molded in grill and replced it with some mesh I had leftover from a tamiya kit. The engine was a disaster as I could not get the hood closed with all of the parts installed. I decided not to finish the engine and I will leave the hood closed for good. The rest of the model is pretty much box stock.

Thanks for looking!

just take out the engine and use it in another project to spice things up a little.. otherwise clean build by the looks of things.. well done

Looks good despite the kit's efforts to foil your attempts. Keep up the great work, and I'm looking forward to better pictures of your future builds. Also, a Sharpie or other permanent marker is good for the rubber "seal" around the headlights, if you use a brush you end up having a really wide border. It looks great, nonetheless.

Yeah...I'm still working on my photo skills. Learning the ropes of the digital camera age. I actually masked off the headlight covers and sprayed the black trim. I had a few minor scratches in the black in the headlight buckets themselves that I wanted to cover up. That is why I made the trim a little thicker.

Thats pretty cool. I was wonder if it was worth buying. I figure it is as long as I can get it to look as good as this one. Good job.
