Custom 25th Wave 1 Desert Vamp

naturally, one of these had to be repainted in the traditional color scheme. i used krylon ultra flat kaki (fusion).

the vamp coems apart very easily, almost too easy. the only real difficult parts were the rear tail light covers. these are glued on so you have to snap the bond and hope you don't damage the lens.

thanks, i really enjoy doing these.

i would have done some cobra versions already but i know we are getting a stinger so it's a bit pointless to repaint a vamp for cobra.

still debating on weither or not i'll do a tiger force vamp, might want to wait for the stinger as well.

Sweet! I was wondering how long before we saw the original repaint. Nice picture to show the contrast, too.
