Jonathan Posted November 14, 2013 Posted November 14, 2013 The Monogram Pro-Modeler kit from some years ago. I really enjoyed this kit, and have another in the stash. I'm thinking of building it as silver with black coves to complement this one. Most of my buildups live in a display case, but dust still seems to seep in. And the camera is certainly unforgiving of mistakes that might go a little less noticed to the casual observer! But hey, I build for fun - mostly!
Ramfins59 Posted November 14, 2013 Posted November 14, 2013 Jonathan, that looks great. I love the interior. I've got one of these in my stash too that I have yet to build to go with my "Class of '58" builds. Great job on yours.
Ace-Garageguy Posted November 14, 2013 Posted November 14, 2013 Very attractive model. Did you open the decklid, or does it come open in kit form?
rmvw guy Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 I was wondering about the deck lid too! I would have never noticed the dust if I hadn't clicked on it, still some nice photography. Nice work on the model, I like the black/red combo. Also have one in my stash I need to get to. Thanks for sharing.
Jonathan Posted November 15, 2013 Author Posted November 15, 2013 Thank you. Yes, the deck lid is a separate piece. Also, it included the up-top. Well, at least in the Pro Modeler rendition. I don't think the 1959 Revell issue, based on this kit, did include the up-top. But, I don't remember. I'll have to dig it out of the stash to verify. Anywho...I added the belts & buckles. A smattering of detail under the hood was also added, but I don't have a picture of it. Overall, I think this is one of my better builds. And, the Supreme Commander approved the color choice.
PappyD340 Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 Great looking Vette Jonathan, love the color combo!!
unclescott58 Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 Missed this kit the first time it was out. Looking forward to the reissue. Scott
TFchronos Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 From one J to another, killer build, very nicely done!
Jonathan Posted May 21, 2014 Author Posted May 21, 2014 Thanks. I highly recommend the kit, if you can get your hands on one. I need to build the '59 and the '62 now!
