DODGE VIPER GTS COUPE
Here's my new build, 1st gen Dodge Viper GTS Coupe! I saw this super cool Viper on Instagram; @sebastienpolit, and I really wanted make one. Time to build an American car and this was the perfect candidate.
Unfortunately, Tamiya or Aoshima never made Viper kits so the only Viper kit available was the Revell kit. It's not a good kit to be honest, quality is not good, lack of details, panel fit is bad, bad decals, and it's a 1/25 scale, so it's bit small...
Basically, a bit challenging kit to make it look good.
Overall, it came out pretty good, I only wish the wheel was 19" instead of 20". This Viper is 1/25 scale so 1/24 20 inch wheels looks little bit too big to me.
Nevertheless, the result looks pretty good and it was a very fun build!
I have a Instagram account where I post building processes so come check it out please.
