Amt mako shark corvette 4th of July quickie

[ERIK88]

I have built this kit in a matter of 3hrs , I wanted something quick since I hardly get a chance to build model cars, and don't have the space right now or time to create a workbench . I built this one on my desktop , it's a nice kit added a few things, and don't ask me y I changed the wheels, lol I did not want to trust me but the kit came missing with a rim . Any comments feel free, even tho it didn't take much lol for this snap kit.

What better way to celebrate the 4th of July than with a Corvette tribute !!!!!! Haha

Great job Erik, does not look like a snap. Love the paint....

[ERIK88]

Thanks , it's a nice kit with a little detailing . I think these rims match the body shape well. These kits are becoming rare know adays

As long as you enjoyed it, that's ALL that matters. BTW, I don't have a workbench either, but for the last 50 years I've used my desktop and it works great. All my tools are in one drawer, and when I clean up, no one can tell that I build model cars on my desk. I also use my desk for reading, looking through my mail, paying bills, etc. I though about getting the desk refinished, but then it wouldn't have any character. It works for me.

That's a fun kit. One easiest kits to build straight out of the box and get something that looks fantastic when your done. I can't remember if this kit was a big seller or not. I have not seen one, including my own in years. Glad you got to build one Eric. Wish I had an extra set of correct wheels for you.

Nice.

[ERIK88]

Thanks, spend the holiday making this and smoking some BBQ ribs , went to see the fireworks after with my lady here at the Wisconsin lakefront.

, feels good being able to finish a model and being able to look at ur wrk in a display. It's probAbly the most rewarding to me, as it reminds me I have sure came a long way since I was a kid building glue bombs lol .
