I've had this for a bit, but I'm pretty proud of it. Although I'm not sure how to make it not be clear, but still showcase the orange flake ... thinking maybe an orange flake paint from behind?

Mask it down the center, Front to the Back and leave 1/2 Clear/Orange and Paint the otherside however you'd like!

More of that renewed attention to detail at the factory QC we've been seeing for the past 3-4 months.

We he said he had is ordered from GMS customs, I do believe they would have packaged the box and sent it. I know you have some beef with Revell but you don't have to blame them for everything. :huh:

Austin...

Having actually ordered from GMS before I can assure you they wouldn't open the kit, break the rear window, steal a tire, and then reseal it and send it to someone.

No but the box had the BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH beat out of it, im sure that's how the glass was broken as the shipping box was mint. Sucks never the less, glad i have 2 so i can build one.......maybe in 4-6 weeks i can build another. They said they are swamped with requests for broken/missing parts due to the holidays ans them being off for over a week.

Got my jig "table" today and some rare earth magnets. Works great for building frames and parts in brass or styrene. Get a piece of white poster board draw your design on it,place it on the steel sheet, use the magnets to hold the parts in place and solder or glue. Actually got the steel plate idea from Dirt Modeler.

I like the Corolla sedan. That was the first car I ever owned; might have to pick one up. You and Martinfan have very similar tastes in models
