Alfa 155 V6 Ti DTM96

Hello all

After looking for some fantastic models were, i decide to post some pics of my Alfa 155 V6 Ti. I finished it some time ago, but only now take some photos.





















It does not have any PE parts and all that i add were home made.
The brake dutch were made from coil spring rolled with channeler ribbon and paint with acrilic tamiya paint.

The body were paint with Tamiya spray and clearcoat with brushed Tamiya acrilic paint It looks good.

Hope you like it! Commentaries and suggestions are welcome.

Re: Alfa 155 V6 Ti DTM96

Nice, looks very clean. Out of interest, is the Delta the Works Make version from Hasegawa?

Interior and engine are superb. This was always my favourite 155 livery

Thanks very much for your commentaries.

sportracer02 - you're right, some thinned black in the panel lines woulg give it a more appropriate resemblance, but i was affraid of do that and ruin and my work! (i gave to strip all the paint with a x-acto once because I didn't have ear od CSC)

robrex - yes, i paint the car with Tamiya pure white from a can, and apply the decals. The red front bonnet areas are brush paint with Tamiya TS-49 align from a small decal line. After that a give one heavy brush coat of Tamiya acrilic clear. I know it sounds strange, but it looks good (i have try this for the first time in my 1/12 Tamiya Williams FW-14B). After the coat the decals wrinkled but when it dried everything was allright . When i made this i haven't found this foruns, but some friend have a bad experience with Tamiya clear in spray.

Technoman - yes, that is the works Delta Integrale from Hasegawa. I love that car, but i don't like my kit! It was the first curbside i've done and i was a little disapointed with it (and Delta deserves an engine!). Some friend give me is started kit and i'm planning remake it. The cockpit is good (i add wires, fabric in the doors, fire extinguishers, levels for the door glasses, etc) but i think i've could done better

For those who ask pics here goes. (it is paint with Tamiya pure white from spray can with a heavy clear brush coat ).















Those are the unique pics that i have from this kit... but i plane to remake it soon (after finished my current Ferrari 512TR and Lola T93-00 sperdetailed project).

Those anyone knows where i can find an engine and i better decal sheet for it?
