Revell Pre-Finished Series 2014 Corvette Stingray
martinfan5 replied to Exotics_Builder's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
It should be noted that the snap version has been pushed back to April , and the pre painted to May -
Oh believe me, this is not my first time in the rodeo with a cat , but first time owning said cat, but yes, a water bottle is a must have.
-
This was partly my fault , I agreed that it might be a good idea to get one for my daughter
-
I love sales Less then two hours home and the cat broke some models Have not seen the Rescue van at two of the stores that I go too.

Yes, Human Society, they were having a week long sale here, $50 for kittens, $10 for six months and older I believe, she is eight months old, all shots/spade/chipped for $10, not a bad deal at all, its my daughters early Christmas present

This came home today

Good!, I really cant wait to see what you do with one. Just noticed that the photo of the engine block did not make it, its there now

This was a quick build that wasnt so quick, I made the mistake of cutting the bed free from the cab, that brought on a whole new set of problems.
-
Kind of the point, I would not want to darken it up at all, anyways, the difference is one is for the Japan market, and the other one is for the USA market
-
Oh, it is not sturdy at all without the bracing, after removing the bracing, you are not going to want to handle the body more than need be, I am working on something that I can attach to the underside of the body that will make more stable and easier to paint it.

Bayside Blue is a lovely color, and I have a bottle of it, and was even thinking about painting it in that color, although, but the only blue you can get from the factory on R35's is Ray Blue Pearl is one name for it, which is a little bit darker. This is not a curbside, it does have engine detail, but not 100% of the engine.
-
This one some how managed to find its way to the work area, darned if I know how that happened , I have no clue as to what color it will, other than a Nissan shade. The body was a little bit wrapped , managed to get it straight Starting with the chassis, not much yet And the brakes/suspension And the engine
-
More has been done on the trailer.

Jameston came through, and my bottle of Nethuns Blu is enroute to me, on to some photos , up first, some mock up shots and started work on the chassis , Tamyia Matt Black was used The brake rotors, started off with painting them with Model Master Metalizer Aluminum, followed by Model Master Metalizer Burnt Metal, the calipers MM Metalizer Gun Metal And on all fours , and you can see the wheels have been strip of the chrome plating And another mock up Moving on the engine I believe I used ALcald Aluminum, valve covers in Matt Black

Ohhh, yes, I am well aware of him, pretty much all of his decals are just copys of decals made by other people.
-
These came in over the course of a few days , I really dont wanna talk about'em though
-
Geoff, who did you buy the sheets from ?
-
Like Frank said, these are all either Q3/Q4 kits for 2014, seeing how Revell has been pushing back a lot of kits, I am guessing they have pushed back the 2015 Q1 announcement as well But Revell isnt the only company that has been having to push release dates back.

A+ effort, nice job -
Why are any of us here ?

Is there an 'Ollie's' near by
martinfan5 replied to GLMFAA1's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Not disagreeing , but I just want to point out that Hobby lobby has a much greater selection than the "71" different kits at Ollies. -
There is very little room there to be gained , the only way really is to raise that area above the wheels

Got me beat, I find zero of them interesting
