Thanks guys. Took some better pics in the daylight. I am debating pulling off the wheels and redoing them in Gold. Thoughts?
-
This was another in-between projects one that I whipped together quick. My intent was to build a stock turbo S originally, so that is why you don’t see the carbon fiber and the big wing on the back. Pretty simplistic kit with no engine, but lots of body panels. Paint is just a cheap quick, rustoleum spray, lol.

Revell & Atlantis at the IPMS National Convention 2025

Does anyone know about when this might be out? Looks like it’s far enough into development that it’s almost a complete product. Would really like to build one of these! -

That Lambo is cool and unexpected. Any release date on that? -
Thanks again everyone! Also, I just wanted to clarify that this is “colormaxx” Krylon. It is sold at Hobby Lobby. I have great success with this. I have NOT had great success with the Krylon found at Walmart, etc. I hope this helps.

Thanks again guys! I might break some hearts here, but this is what I used for the finish, both the White and the Black on the tops. It went on really well and rubbed out perfectly. No primer, no clear! 🤯 It was way different than my normal process since it was something I just wanted to whip together quickly.

Did this in between commissioned builds. It is nostalgic for me as I remember building this back when i was a kid and the kit was an annual kit. It is the snapper kit, so not much under the hood. I kinda just threw this one together quick.

Thanks Tim. Is it just me, or are those 10 spokes out of scale/disproportionate?
-
That looks like a nice build. They said it is a new body. Are the wheels new too?

What wheels are on this Porsche 911?

Thank Superdan! Unfortunately I can’t find a kit of that car. There is the GT3 kit, but that will take some work. Thanks for finding them though. -
I really like the old Monogram based 3rd gen kits. Here is mine built about 15 years ago or so. It builds up to a very convincing replica.

Revell (Monogram) 1/24th scale, 1985 Pontiac Fiero

When?! This one makes me so nostalgic. Looking forward to seeing it again. -
Wait I missed that one? It was released in 2004 as well?

I just thought I would share this gem with everyone here. IIRC I bought this at Kranzel‘s hobbies in Pennsylvania. I vaguely remember the guy saying there’s a new magazine out you gotta get and pointed to it. It is in cherry shape. I have many, many others, but didn’t realize I had the very first issue. I found it while getting ready to move to a new location and packing my stuff.

Whoa. I missed this! Anyone have links to the test shots?

This is great! Looks like they have the “77/‘78 hood stripe in there too! -
Thanks guys! This kit IMO is very underrated and was rewarding to build!
-
Great job Christian!
-
Those of you who have this kit, are the new Atlantis tires bigger than the originals from Revell? They always looked a little small to me.
-
Have we seen any indications on what is happening with the decals in this kit? I am really interested to see what options we have this time around.
