Hwa-Rang displays his purple power in the form of a Dodge Viper. This car is all about the engine.

Jesper, one word “Outstanding“!…just beautiful. Nice clean build you got, what’s your secret installing all the glass work in so perfect. Great choice with the color. Every time I see a purple Dodge it reminds of Joe Dirt…”Plum Crazy Purple”

Thanks for your kind words gentlemen.

Joe: no secrets installing the glass. Just very nice fit. The black edge around the windshields are part of these, just painted black on the inside.

Thanks Scott, you've done wonders with my pictures. No trace of my garden backdrop

I can only hope my Viper will look just as good when finished.

For now, an experiment with a new primer went awry, and the bodywork of my Viper now needs a good scrub ( has seriously orange peel effect ).

It will come around though, and will get a nice shiny red paintjob with 2 silver stripes.

Richard: A shame about the primer. The red/silver color combo is a killer. Looking forward to seeing it.

Hi Sebastian. Welcome to the automotive forum.

Thanks for your kind words.

The kit is Revells 1/25 Dodge Viper GTS. Great kit.

Same for the Revell 1/25 Dodge Viper SRT 10. Absolutely nothing wrong with the kit itself ( though sometimes the paint instructions can be vague/ missing/ plain wrong ).
