Nacho Z Posted March 29 Posted March 29 I thought that I would share my latest completed model with you. This the Revell 2005 C6 Corvette. Here is the link to the WIP thread in case you are interested. My overall impression of the kit is a good one. I would recommend it. Fit was good, no flash to speak of, and it looks the part. I wanted a dark blue Vette with red accents throughout. There are pictures of the inspiration for this build in the WIP. It is painted in Gravity Colors (Spain) Lexus LFA Liquid Blue. The hood and roof are done in Scale Motorsports carbon fiber. The kit's chrome wheels were stripped and painted in AK Interactive Xtreme Metals Metallic Smoke. I felt this tied in with the CF decals quite well. On to the pictures. Let me know what you think! Forgive me for a gratuitous picture. I finished this model the night before the show. I will admit that it was a smaller show, but I was very pleased with the results of its debut outing. Thank you for looking! 12

Pierre Rivard Posted March 30 Posted March 30 When we look at the first picture of a build and think it's a reference picture of the real car, then no doubt we have something very special. This replica is most lifelike. Thanks John for sharing it wit us. 1
