Valvefloat Posted March 20 Posted March 20 Just finished it It had a few issues with fitment but for not touching a model for around 8 years I'm content with it. 12
OldSkool81 Posted March 21 Posted March 21 Superb build!!! But I think my mind is playing tricks on me; I got one in the '90's with the same box art as you IIRC (a blue C5) but never was enthusiastic enough to start it because I'm pretty sure it was the Hardtop version, while my favorite is the Coupe version like yours... I'll have to double check to see what I have! I love your choice of paints, because while it looks showroom-new, your metallic paints have a kind of subtle dept that makes it look more like a real car rather than like a model!

The paint is dollar store craft stuff applied with a brush since I cant afford an airbrush. I did buy Tamiya Smoke, Flat clear and Flat black yesterday. Need it to warm up to paint outside.
espo Posted March 21 Posted March 21 Great looking paint finish and trim details. Like the way the chassis is done.
VanGoGo Posted March 21 Posted March 21 Looks great! I think the C5 'vettes are much better looking than the C7s or C8s

ea0863 Posted March 23 Posted March 23 Beautiful build Alex, particularly the paint job. And BTW, I may be a little biased because I own a C6, but I agree with your list
