discussion Yaks muscle car build - revell 1/25 Camaro z28

[yak face]

Ok peeps here is my subject for the muscle car gb. Its the Revell 1/25 Camaro z28 rs. Its a simple enough kit , no opening doors or boot , just the bonnet . Im not a big fan of the RS triple headlights so i was pleasantly surprised to see that the standard grille and headlights are included on the sprues so im going to use those. I might not put the boot spoiler on either . Heres a pic of the box top and a teaser of the colour im going to do it, cheers tony

I will be watching this one. I do hope that you write a good how to on painting with the nail varnish. I tried it once and failed misserably. It would be nice to see how it is done.

Have you been hanging around the discount make up counter again ? But do tell, is that the colour, or actually the paint you are going to use ?

You should know our Tony by now Col! If he's not rummaging about in the bargain boxes at the shows, he's mooching about the cosmetics counter in a pound shop somewhere!

Both colin , im going to try spraying the body with nail varnish so thats the actual stuff im using. Ill hopefully do a step by step account of the process(unless it doesnt work then ill bury the thread without trace)

Ive got the Revell 69 Camaro Snaptite kit, and it will be interesting to see the difference between that and this one.
