Magazine quality!

Beautyful model.
And Beautiful Tamiya kit too

Holy cow that was quick! A lovely job, and great colour choice.

Oly Shiiii......

is Perfect!!!

Wow... Amazing!

It was quick! =)

Beautiful job and great colour choice indeed. I intended to paint my model silver, but now... =)

Great photos BTW =)

perfect work!!!!!! Nice!!

Great job! What was your technique for painting the hub caps?

Just one little thing that the instructions don't point out: the lip around the ashtray cover on the top of the dashboard should be painted chrome.

beautiful! it could pass for brochure pics of the real one :)

Excellent WORK!!!!...nice car.... I have Revell models and Testor and I think will work hard to leave them as yours.

Lovely work and great colour combo, looks fantastic..!!

Superb looking finish! Grats!

impecable!

Excellent!
Did you keep the Tamiya's chrome parts (for bumpers, grilles, mask etc) or paint them? Thanks for sharing...

Amazing! Didn't even know this was released yet! Quick work. :p

jesus, I'd forgotten how sexy that car actually is.
that low first shot is fantastic.

I love 300SL and I love your model. Both are perfect :)

Thanks for a lot of comments

Its excellent kit, easy to fit but hard to paint(as usual with Tamiya):frown:
I keeped chrome parts except dashboard and hub caps.
By using enamel paints, you may don't need to strip off chromes, but difficult to match the body color (in laquer paints etc.).
Fender molding trims may requires some adjustment, because it sticks out so much from body surface.

It looks so good... I was unsure if it was the model or 1:1 pics. Love it.

How did you get such a perfect result so quickly?! That is a beauty!

Awesome!
