Revell Corvette C6-R - At the end of a long day & night -

[daveb257]

Calling this one finished, some of the details are not 100% accurate and a touch of artistic interpretation, looked like a toy car all gloomy & shiny so it's become a car at the end of LeMans 24.

Still no sign of seatbelts or wipers yet so just left seat OOB (can't see it anyway) and final touch today are the headlights & they don't fit, placed on for know but another email to Revell as they seem to be narrow bodied C6 lamps rather than Z06/ZR1 slightly bigger ones

Anyway all comments & advice welcome

Dave

Great work Dave love it. Pity about the lights I hope you get them sorted. And by the way did it win the LeMans ?

Certainly looks like it has completed the Le Mans 24 hour, nice build and good weathering.
