Astounding attention to detail. For a 1:43 scale this is simply jaw dropping!!

You said 1/43 decals!

Anyway, even at 1/24 still jaw dropping. Though not as low as it would be if it was 1/43.

Re: Corvette CR5 2001 Petit LeMans

A small update.
Seat includes SMS Photo etched bolts
SMS photo etched buckles
Blue wire was used even though its wrong to help it stick out a little more when the body is on.
The electronic connector is actually a brass bolt made for model tanks, used with the black tube from a 1/12 Tamiya motorcycle.



Thanks for looking.

Re: Corvette CR5 2001 Petit LeMans

Anyone have a suggestion on what to clearcoat a decal that you just printed with?

I dont want anything to "wet" that will destroy the decal. In the past I have used the Micro product.
I found it made the decals very thick and hard to work with.

Thanks for any help.

Chris
