1/24 Revell AG Audi R10

Gallery Article by Pablo Angel Herrera on Jan 23 2012

Hello there fellow petrolhead modellers!  I present you my Audi R10 from Revell.  The Audi R10 was first introduced in the Le Mans series back in 2006.  It was the first time a diesel engined car would participate in such races.  As the German tradition is, carmakers participate with 3 cars wearing the flag's colours.  At Sebring which is the first race of the season the yellow car won but came second behind the red car at the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the black car finished third.

I have always loved car racing, so when I saw this kit at my local hobby store I bought it immediately.  As opposed to airplane kits, Revell AG car kits are somewhat difficult and lack some details so some sanding and fitting was required.

This one was painted with Revell Acrylics and sealed with Future. Some weathering was done airbrushing thin layers of black paint.

Cheers-
