I like it a lot, the model is not flashy, yet it has a lot of presense that others, perhaps, don't. Well-built.

Well put, I think the colour really gives a subtle sinister look. Very good looking model and great clean work, especially under the hood.

Great job and a great color choice! I like the magnesium painted wheels too.

Great job! Impossible to tell it's a model in those first pictures.
The toothpick sort of gives the game away though in the engine bay ;)

Thanks for the kind words, everyone!
Some Kid: The paint was decanted from duplicolor spraycans, then airbrushed onto the body. I painted the headlights by hand, very carefully! :iceslolan I used Tamiya acrylics (semigloss black, smoke, and clear orange) for the headlight buckets, and I blackened the edges of the lenses with a sharpie marker.
klutz_100: Er, ah... that's my neighbor's broom handle. Yeah... :icon16:

Superb job! Looks like the real thing until you get to the toothpic. I'v seen that color before and it is awsome, excelent choice with the black interior.
