sensei kamikaze Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 Saludos a todos, I present to you my most recent finish model, the Corvette 1978 Indy 500 pace car. Completely out of the box the body is painted with Tamiya cans black and silver leaf with some coats of TS 13, the rest is a mixture of brands Humbrol, Model master, Tamiya, even Vallejo, I hope you like it. My classic model card for my archives Super shine as a mirror… almost The red and amber lights are Tamiya clear applied with a toothpick over the silver paint A little blue filter on one of the photography lights makes some nice blue reflections The rims are painted with alclad II candy silver base they look fantastic Some little extra detail on the engine Flocked interior… you can see a minor error over the fire wall, but I believe that it was supposed to be more far away and it will not be visible… but it seems that I was wrong The glamour shot… a little bit over exposed for a more dramatic look The under side, a little rust, fitting that exhaust in place required some minor changes to be installed, here the instructions are very wrong that’s all for now, I hope you like it and comment!!!
