Re: MerZedes-Benz 190E Evo2 - WEST - K.Thiim DTM 1991 1/24

I'm working on the Ellen Löhr car.
I only made the wheelarchers wider/thinner.
The side windows bigger (like you also did)
The side spoilers (left and right under the body) thinner.
And I changed the front spoiler lip.

But I have 2 more of these kits in stock together with DMC decals aswell.
So I have to be carefull with those....!?

And maybe you have to change your topic title, because it is a Mercedes-Benz not a MerZedes.
For the rest of your build I think you did a hell of a modelling job untill now. Really amazing.
Please....don't jump of your balcony....don't do it!!!!

Watch and check out ScaleMates, because this site is really amazing.
You have reviews, you can manage you whole stock, I a lot more.

Paolo, I love you (not gay) and your style, and your builds! Finish MerZerdes – it's almost done.

Re: MerZedes-Benz 190E Evo2 - WEST - K.Thiim DTM 1991 1/24

so time now to proceed with this old lady from the 90s.
i finally found quality studio27 decals from Domino, after the suggestion of my great Friend Fred from Belgium, always supporting me and my models and of course this time the decalizing process went much more easy than older dmc sheet. Sad to note anyway in my opinion dmc are more precise and correct in smaller details. I hope they can improve the printing and fix the issue with the film getting so old and so problematic for any further use. I hope they read me someday and understand what I meant.

The mercedes going on is here:









Of course my decision to lift the roof and all the pillars of this body makes me fit different the trasparent parts. With some lucky I was able anyway to use the box windshields (curved) seprated by the unique plastic piece provided by fujimi. I think this way all the overall look of the 190Evo become much more realistic than any straight from the box









this livery is quite tricky cause u have to repeat the decal processing little by little you add parts, as for side windows. I think is anyway worthed and infinitely nicer than the black mercedes everyone usually builds up









then the final pics (I will place much more of the finished car in completed section). really hard was for me to find a proper PE part for the caracteristic 3 star logo all merZedes have on the bonnet. very very hard to find, I was lucky I had a very nice spare star in my doggy box so finally my Merc has its symbol on.

Thanks for watching and hope you like my model.

Hello Paolo,

You made a very stunning model out of it, really Nice one and great livery.
And as said before, I bought an Evo2 kit, and the decals to make the Berlin2000 car from Keke Rosberg.

With your thread as a guide I'll make a nice model from it.

Thanks,
Regards,
Johan

I use Hasegawa mini saw. Also I saved a thinner one coming from the pe set included into hasegawa and dauntless plane.
Also x acto makes very thin and good blades.
