Kierlan Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Hi folks, I'm a relative newbie to the car modeling scene, the last few models I made (admittedly a few years ago) were mostly from GW's line of 40k related materials which are I suspect somewhat more forgiving then the stuff the cars are made of! I signed up to learn a bit more about the hobby but also to get some help and tips on how to assemble a specific Revell kit, the '68 Corvette Convertible. I decided to give it a shot as I've not worked on a model in a while and another project I'm working on (a comic book) features a character who has such a car (albeit with some interesting modifications..) I was vaguely thinking about attempting to model their car using the kit but I'll have to learn where to start first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

disabled modeler Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Welcome... Best advise anyone ever gave me is to treat every part as if it were a model itself and take your time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kierlan Posted August 3, 2015 Author Share Posted August 3, 2015 I'm based down in Kerry Clearly your up in Dublin. I'm trying to track down a model and pay a reasonable price for the kit, but so far Amazon wants an arm and a leg and the local hobby shop says it doesn't exist even though I have a part number for the box lol.
