AMG SL65 Black Series

Hey guys

Just finished another build!

Aoshimas fantastic AMG Black kit with PE detail up set + SMS CF decals.
Colour is Nissan GTR Spec V Midnight Purple from Zero Paints, which is very hard to photograph. Loved the kit, would build another in a heartbeat.
Only downside is spolier is molded to body in down position, so I carefully removed it & poped it up.

Let me know what you think!!!
Cheers
Ash

PE brakes look great behind these wheels!

Thanks for looking!!!
Ash

:eek2:Nice !!!!!!!

Looks brilliant. The little details are superb.

Looks good. I also have this kit. Been working on it off and on for over a year. Just wondering where the exhaust tips are on yours? I didn't see them in any of the photos! :eek:

Great work Ash! Maybe you can give the front emblem a bit wash to get the edges neater and apply a better decal on the number plate. :-)

Nice build.

Thanks guys!

I havent finished the exhaust tips yet, went to put them on & wasnt happy with the molding & chrome. Aoshima put the mold seams right behind the "tip" & chromed over it, looks pretty terrible so last minute decided to re-chrome.

Tang - I hadnt considered a wash for the emblem, I'll give that a shot tonight!
& yeah the number plate is photoetched, the AMG is "engraved" into it, I though it was a tad bright so added a wash to dull it down, bit of a mistake but I can live with it. I also used a liquid mask to spary the black first & then bruhed the edges, not perfect but its ok

Well done!

Looks realy good! Realy makes me want to build again!

great job! what an amazing attention to detail. that color combo looks evil, like it is trying to find new ways to harm you, lol...best AMG SL65 black series i have seen!
