Michelin Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye

Michelin Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye

Materials:
Kyosho Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye unpainted autoscale
Krylon Fusion Matte Clamshell spray paint
Krylon Fusion Satin Black
Krylon Fusion Gloss Red Pepper
Tamiya X-8 Yellow
Molotow Liquid Chrome 1mm pen
Future Floor Polish
Pattos Michelin Sauber C9 decals, 1/27 scale, clear vinyl in custom inverse color scheme

I've done so many of this livery, running out of things to say. The Challenger is a small body and decided to go with a more vintage color scheme of the standard off white with a red nose. Reminds me more of the older vintage racers of days gone by which isn't a bad thing. Not sure how long the red nose will hold up to track abuse but easy enough to touch up with a Gundam paint marker. I usually make a pass on all my team cars once a month or so just to touch up the paint with Gundam paint markers.
I had forgotten to add the signature yellow halo on the rear right tail-light and had to add it post lens install which made it really tricky to do and would have otherwise made it more obvious but didn't want to test how steady i could pin stripe on an concave surface.
