Viper SRT-10

Great color!! I love the paint!

[spidereddie]

Think i made a boo-boo. The panel lines (painted with gray and some yellow) came out way too dark. Oh well. no desire to repaint. Polish compound isn't really working like I thought it would in the panel lines to remove it or make it lighter.
NOS tank from Aoshima spo-com set. I would rather not hear about "Oh you ruined a great american muscle car with tuner garbage", however this is a free forum for expression. I just felt like spicing up the interior so whatever if you disagree with the concept.

Don't freak out man... NOS Viper exist since a long time... the VELENO was a cool Viper and one of the first (Viper) with NOS. I don't hate what you've done... in fact, the color make it stand tall in front of every car. Don't let the negatives get to you, you model is nice and the idea has been there for a long time but some don't like it.

PS... the panel lines seem ok from here. Planning of opening those air vent on the hood ??

theres nothing wrong with using nitrous in a muscle car. i mean hey, look at some drag specific cars... they basically run on nitrous.

the wash doesnt look terrible either. i don't even have the guts to try it, and if you dont like how yours came out, at least it was a learning experience and you'll know what to do different for next time!

Looks good to me, panel lines scare me

[white97ex]

the panel lines look pretty good.....they are a tad dark yes...but hey, colors like yellow and white and the like, they are hard to get panel lines that look JUST right.....to all the others, dont be afraid of panel lines, its just acrylic paint, and easy to remove if you mess up or it ends up outside the lines....just mix it till its a milk like or water like consistency, all you have to do is touch the lines and it flows right in. unless they aren't deep enough.....I usually scribe my panel lines a couple times before paint to make sure that they stay nice a crisp

Right on, Eddie!! With your skills, feel free to express yourself here anyway you want!! Your builds never dissappoint!! Build how you feel!!!

Nice start!

[mickbench]

That's a nice model, of a nice car. Your panel lines are a litle overkill but thankfully not totally black and not therefore ruined that superb paintjob.

Next time, with yellow, mix orange and yellow and then do your panel lines.. Looks better and just a tad darker then the body colour.. It's how I did my S2000 panel lines that was also yellow..

What a horrid colour to work with though.. I love yellow sports cars, but hate working with yellow..

looking great so far, the interior looks very realistic with the NOS bottle and seatbealts. As for the panel line, if you don't like it you can try scraping it out with a scriber and filling them with another color. I don't think paint will ever cut it on panel lines. I've started scribing the lines deep enough to the point where it's almost detached before painting.

Ok, well only a little more to go. just some final details and some polish and I can call her "DONE"


THIS WAS A GREAT KIT to build minus the crappy wheels. . highly recomend

[cooltc2004]

sexy!

[DukeMan]

Looking sharp Dr. Eddie! That paintjob really needs a polish? I don´t think yer panel lines are overkill, they do however looked green in some of the pics, might just be tha camera playin tricks on my eyes, might be my puter being fucked up.

Keep it up!

[D_LaMz]

wow, what wheels are those?

[eph2]

amazing work!
