Today I bought this kit.. A Chevrolet C5-R..

I´m not sure which I will make.. I´m deciding about the yellow/white Le Mans 2000 Chevy.. OR the yellow Daytona 24 hours #3 driven by Earnhardt SR... any tips of what scheme I can do it in..?

Here are som progress pics...



the chassis is maybe going painted tomorrow considering the wheather...



going to cut the front and back open on the body, making it a full detail..



thats all from me now.. good luck on your project out there.. =)

Very nice. Goodluck

I'd go with the number 3, just because I prefer the black back wing sides

I´m with you Petter.. it is a nice livery in the #3... but hey.. you can´t like.. slide me in to a moderators position ? =P

here's an update... cut the car in pieces...

Great Details!!!!!

Keep doing the good job!

UAUUUU!!!!!!Those air vents look great!!
Those that kit come with engine?Or is it a curbside?
If you are going to make it full detail wich engine are you going to use??

The kit comes with an engine yes... that is what makes this kit so great.. I recomend buying it..

Here is a new update... here you see the chassi is painted in semi-gloss black and the front lip is yellow...



And here is an little test setup just for everyone to see what it may end up looking in the end...



Thats all from me right now.. Keep Modeling

Wow.....you should rest sometimes!

The kit is coming perfect!
Now the big question...how did you opened those vents perfectly?

I used a drill.. and drilled a hole in the center.. and then used a small sharp knife to cut out the edges... what do you think.. is this going o be a "masterpiece build" ? I hope so... =)

It is a great car to be build and you are starting very fast and very steady..with same nice featured,but please check your reference about the vents on the front hood,and I wish you all the luck for your "masterpiece".
If you need of any reference material..I´ll mail it to you.

keep modeling B+regards António

I know there is 4 of each in every vent.. But I wanted to do something different.. =) but thanks anyway..
