Smile Corvette C5 by Revell

Built this way back when this kit first came out, before my panel wash days. It is built box stock and I turned the inner wheel slightly and painted them body color just for effect. The color is a custom mix of Testors Boyd's paints and pearl powders, then cleared with Gunze B501 and polished. It actually looks more copper colored in person with a gold sheen. Several fitting issues with this model, windshield, chassis, rear window and hood.

Thanks all! The hinges are the kit hinges, it's kind of neat how they work.
