Hello people.
For the first time since I came back to modelling I managed to start and finish a kit in the same year!
Less mistakes than in my latest one the F458 (http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=1084254)
The kit itself itīs awesome, build is fairly easy. My only issues were with some annoying mold lines and the evil engine metal tranfers.
Summary of the build:
- Out of box
- 1 layer of Tamiya primer and then a few more of Mr Surfacer, it was my first time using Mr Surfacer...OMFG...itīs awesome.
- Paint is polyester Silver Pearl, I got it in a package deal with another modeler so I donīt really know the brand with 2 two part clear from PPG, wet-sanded, polished with Tamiya compounds and waxed.
Thanks for viewing.
Cheers!
