Another quickie Revell snap kit and my last set of Pattos decals that I have stockpiled.
I made all of the usual adjustments to this kit, fixing the ride height, adding the front splitter, correcting the rockers and adding the exhaust opening.
I've always liked how well Pattos decals go on but in this case the issue with the roof decal not fitting is terrible on this sheet. The rally stripes don't even come close to reaching the front edge of the roof. I was going to use some blue decal film to add the missing pieces but I'm out of blue so I had to hand paint them. Not too bad except for I didn't have the color to properly match. It should look o,k, once the body is clear coated.

All of the tire and wheel decals are done. I also added a roof camera. Time to move on to the interior.

Take a new Sharpie, black, and carefully touch the ends of the 5 yellow lug nuts. Makes it look like the wheel stud is protruding from the yellow lug nut. |
