Here's another LeMans winner - specifically the 2015 LMGTE Class winning Corvette C7R - designed for use with the Revell 1/25 scale kit. Includes chrome foil (1/25 scale only) and reflective material for the number plates.

Looks very nice indeed. Have you ever tried Zero Paints clear coat on your decals or is it to hot??

I don't 'think' there's a problem with it, but I should say you probably don't want to clear coat over chrome foil.

Per my facebook comment you're making me want another kit despite me hating building it!

I do want to ask with your new foray into sportscar, i can point and show you the HOT market that is decals for the new Tamiya AMG GT3 kit. I can guarantee that someone with your caliber and reputation would do well!! I know i have at least 3 more builds to add to the 2 of the kit i've already done
And so you touch this limit, something happens and you suddenly can go a little bit further. With your mind power, your determination, your instinct, and the experience as well, you can fly very high.

Michael,

Nicely done and great timing. I just started building this kit.

Needless to say I just placed my order.

Curious, is the chrome foil waterslide or does it have an adhesive backing?


Cheers,
Mike

I'm familiar with that - I'm on the facebook page, but it seems like it's already an oversaturated market?

Very nice. Did you make decals for the C5R driven by Earnhardt at 2001 LeMans?

Thanks,

Joe.
