Helix Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 G' Day Folks, Finally off the bench and continuing on with my muscle car builds theme... Revell kit, really nice one to build, I liked the options and couldn't decide what to build. I eventually settled for my usual 'sleeper' look, but with a twist ! I turned it into a daily driver, but come street animal on the weekends, by changing the hood and removing the hubcaps even cutting the exhaust to leave would be takers guessing... Anyway you'll get the idea as you scroll down.... Paint is Tamiya Titanium Gold TS-87, similar to the factory Medium Gold, semi gloss black interior, the kit tyres looked small so I used the nice looking ones out of the MPC 'Class action' Monte Carlo kit. Cheers and thanks for looking Next up.....Revell '69 Camaro Yenko / SC.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Moparbuilder Tester Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 Nice build ! What is especially impressive to me is the quality of the photographs. What kind of booth are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helix Posted August 9, 2013 Author Share Posted August 9, 2013 Thanks Aleksander and James!Nothing special with the photo booth James, just using some A3 size paper and good lighting, my camera is a Sony Cyber-shot digital 16.1 megapixels.I normally use my garage diorama for 'under glass' pictures, just thought I would be different with this one!
