Revell 1/12 camaro

Hi all well I'm enjoying the 1/8 hot rod immensely and I think it has rekindled my mojo so I've made a start on this

(still not confident enough to do any more to my ships) firstly a warning to all, careful how you stack your stash, this was OK when I put it away but there were 4 heavyish kits on it.

Those who know me will know I hardly ever do as the box art.

Hi all I've had a blue Peter moment with this kit, I've heard of bmf and thought maybe i could make some.

Take a reel of double sided sticky tape and stick it to the back of some bacofoil 





Cut from the tape side (the foil all rucks up if you try it from the foil side.

Hi all an update on this one.

Just dropped the body on to see the effect nothing glued in place yet.

Looking WOW!

Hi all I need some help choosing wheels, there are 3 sets in the kit and I've put the gt 500 wheels with it too.
For easiness please just say 1,2,3 or 4

2 or 4 in my opinion,prefer 2.

Hi all well my son came round today for a bbq (his sisters birthday) and I showed him this he said there's only one colour scheme for a camaro and that's black and yellow, I said no this is the older version but he gave me a lecture about how at the beginning of the film he had the older version it only transformed to the new on later in the film. Anyway it's my model and this is how it's staying, here's tonight's bit.

Hi all the engine is complete, I must say this is a really great kit, part fit is good, the chrome plating is also very good, and the detail is excellent, I would recommend this to anyone.

Really nice,well done.

Hi all off to hunstanton over the weekend so no modeling, but this is what I'm thinking for the interior of this, do you think it will go with the silver or should I do some orange or gold hi lights, also should I leave it as cloth or satin finish it.

Hi all, well here is tonight's bit, can someone tell me why this car has 4 peddles, never seen that before, I'm guessing handbrake? 

Strange to say the least, but i don;t know anything about American cars.

Hi all well I've made a bit of a booby on this, tried polishing the paint to get a better shine and on the side I polished through to the primer a bit so will have to get some more pound land silver, anyway here is the latest update.







This kit seems to be going together very well, all seems to be a good fit, I must admit she's a beautiful looking car, not really surprising it was designed at the peak of American car design, before all car manufacturers started to build cars that were indistinguishable from their rivals, I love this period and before when you could tell one car from another at 300 yards, whereas nowadays you have to get within 10 feet to tell if it's a Ford or a Citroën. 

Hi all here's tonight's bit.

Hi all nearly there now, I know the tyres are a bit narrow but they are all I had to fit these rims

looking sharp, i like the paintwork. Tyres don;t really matter it looks cool.

Hi all well it's finished, not great but not rubbish either, wish I was better at this but at least it's presentable, I think I'm on the right track, I'm quite pleased with the paint job, quality could be much better but I like the style of it









And as you can see I'm running out of room maybe time to start binning stuff

Lovely work, those two cars look huge.
