dougp Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 Here is my latest kit I used to get motivated to build again. The wife has been having some medical issues and after spending all day at dr.'s offices and labs I found it hard to go home and build. I found an AMT Concept Camaro snap kit in my closet and decided to try and throw it together. Well it got the juices flowing again. I added a scoop, rear deck spoiler and wheels and rims for the parts box. I changed the stance slightly to give it a bit of a rake. I detailed the interior and added a scratch built roll bar. I smoothed down the rear roll pan and filled in the factory exhaust ports and added my own on the side using aluminum tubing for the tips. The paint is Model Masters laquer, purple over silver mist with many coats of clear. This was my first and complete wet sand and polish. I used a Detail Master's polishing kit and it worked great. I managed to get some super glue on the roof after I got it assembled, but was able to polish and buff it out and save the paint. It helped that I used almost a whole can of the clear. lol Thanks for looking...
kerc Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 Hey, I like that a lot! I know what you mean, I'm returning to the hobby in these days. It's hard to "break the ice" but once you start cutting and gluing together plastic, it's a slippery slope.
davyou5 Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 Wow! Motivational is right! D**m Fine Job on that Camaro! B) .
crazyjim Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 Looks real good. I like what you did with the exhaust.
