Corvette ZR1 *PICS*
I wanted to finish this a long time ago but the recent show I attended moved it along. I'm refreshed and rejuvenated for modeling again.
Revell Corvette ZR1 Scalefinishes.com Jetstream Blue Scalefinishes.com Calicove blue on calipers and engine Wheels were stripped, sprayed with Testors gloss black and lightly sprayed with Chrome alclad. I wanted that black chrome look and feel I achieved it. Interior is black and grey per the JetStream blue ZR1 I was referencing. I also used black embossing powder for the interior flocking. I grind out the front grill and inserted some black painted wire form. More realistic. I hand drilled each brake rotor, painted them aluminum and added a light black wash to bring out the detail. The roof carbon fiber (Scale Motorsport CF Twill weave)was tough and I'm o.k. with how it turned out but very happy to have learned a new technique to apply to future models. I went with Tamiya TS13 for clear. Polished the kit out and used Meguiars Scratch X 2.0. Novus was used as well. Well, enough of my rambling here are a few pictures with more at the link: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Lot more photos and MY FOTKI Don't mind how many I took as I was experimenting with my camera and lighting.

Switching CF brands helped tremendously as did using solva-set and heat. I just need to get the trimming down a bit better. I try to do something new on each kit I build to challenge myself. It's the only way you get better. Thanks for the comments. Chris |
