Big and Little
I ordered an AW C7 Z51 in 1/18 scale from Maisto.
I painted the interior flat black, painted the roof to simulate the clear roof, painted the Carbon Flash Package on, painted rims since I couldn't find chrome, and painted the Stinger Hood Stripe so it matches my real C7... "Ursula". I'll post another picture once the paint is dry and the car is put back together.

It didn't come out perfect, but it's the first one and it'll be sitting on the engine for car shows.
The Stinger Stripe was a HUGE PIA! Even with professional pin stripe tape on the edges. It's a "Three Footer" to be sure. At least it's done.

Nice! How did you get the Z51 wheels on it? Every Maisto model I see has the Torque wheels. I want to do something similar to match my car.
