I have been working for a bit more than 4 month on this one.
It's a Tamiya Kit with Renessance transkit and Scale Production decals

Paint is Mica Blue over gray Primer. SMS Carbon Fiber is used for wing, miroir and front bumper (which isn't acurate, since it was looking very bad on the real car)

Beautiful work Eric. I'm not familiar with the real car so can't comment on the accuracy, however for sheer WOW factor it is right off the scale!

hehe the "WOW factor" was more important than accuracy.

...the winshield wiper!

Actually the windshield wiper is the only part I don't really like. Looks a bit spindly, would be better if it was meatier! Probably talking out my ass since I'm not familiar with the real car.

Great work! I hate that PE kits always throw in that "windshield wiper" but its always the same one. Nothing to worry about... its excellent!

Thanks :p

Next will be more simple. the Toyota GT-One (well not that simple) or a Racing Shelby 427 '73 (very different from what I usually do)

not sure yet..

The only problem I had with the GT3 (and it's still a problem) is the GT-Wing. It's in resin and bend a bit making it looking like a "U"

I tried to heat it, i gave it the good shape, but after few minutes, it always come back to the "U" shape.. Still have no solution for this
