I hope enjoy the pictures.

Great build and VERY smooth paint. It'd look 100x better, though, if it was lowered and the wheels inside the body lines. Great job, though.

Mercedes with Brabus V rims...a classic.

1. Your model is ultra clean. The paint detail and interior is superb, the paint is flawless and the panel lines are perfect.

2. We all know that Tamiya did a terrible job on the ride height of this kit. On my 1:1 SLK I have 19 inch wheels and its lowered, but on the kit even a small 18" wheel looks like a 4X4.

Kudos on making a bad kit look good!

Super clean, the interior is great, but it does look like a offroad benz.

Very very nice job! Panel lines are perfect! :bigthumb:

I have to agree w/the others, the model itself is superb (nice colors, finish and detail painting) and the wheels look great for the car...but the model's suspension needs to be modified so that the aftermarket wheels fit the car properly-inside the fenders and at a lower ride height. I have the same problem w/my Tamiya SLK and need to install some better looking wheels. Sometimes you have to cobble up the suspension a bit to make the wheel location look proper when you go w/custom rims.

One thing I like about Tamiya's SLK over Fujimi's is the perfect fit of the hardtop.

I love those pictures!!
Great looking build!

Looks awesome. :naughty: This isn't your first model, is it?
It looks perfect with those Brabus rims, but it just needs some lowering. Well done anyway.

I thought you weren't suppose to post pictures of real cars on here man. LOL. Great job....

One word..........STUNNING .........!!!

Hello again and thanks for its commentaries I am in agreement with all with respect to lowering the suspention, but the time to finish the car was very little and I did not want to put in delicate things but, nevertheless hare in the following one.
