Hello all,
Just a couple of pics here for your enjoyment, after what seems like ages and very slow progress in the finishing stages finally got the Bentley finished. The kit went together really well, everything fitted more or less perfectly, built virtually from the box except for adding aerials and a lot of carbon decal (which is what took the time).
Not too impressed with the pics though, I'll try to take some better ones for the gallery shots.
Le Mans here we come!!!

Beautiful! Color looks right, I would tone down those yellow letters on the tires though, look kind of toyish. :)

Beautiful model of an awesome car.
Good job.
I was fortunate enough to see the Bentlys at Sebring this year. Very attractive race car.

Great job Steve. I have one of those coming in the mail, can't wait to get my hands on it. I built the 1/43 PM kit. I used Duplicolor Ford Dark Jade Green. I like the 2002 car like yours better than the 2001 car that PM did. Here is a pic of my PM kit built.

Great job as all you other work. :cool:

Just amazing, I have seen the kit and I am thinking of getting one soon. I have to finish an MG from Profil 24, another amazing resin Kit.

Thanks for the comments chaps - much appreciated.
Profil MG is next but one on the list of projects.
Jomnhta, the paint colour is that which is recommended in Auto modelisme, code R963 Renault vert anglais (which, I presume means Renault english green).

Steve, that AUTOMATICALLY earns you my highest award due to personal bias.

And I suppose I can apply it to the Bentley, too. So long as it wins Le Mans and I don't have to see another f**king Audi walkover.
Have I mentioned I don't like Auto Union and their constant attempts to dominate sportscar racing by outspending other companies?

Unfortunately if Sebring was any indication Audi still has an edge in fuel consumption. I do wish Bentley the best though.
