Audi Quattro Tamiya

Started on a Tamiya Audi Quattro. It was supposed to be a quick build in order get some time away from my F40 and to actually finish something..
Well, the project hit a snag pretty early when the Tamiya decals caused me some major problems... They must be too old or something, because they just cracked and curled in the edges. Luckily I had some revell Audi Quattro decals left, and they worked much better, but the bodu will never be 100% so I decided to make this a dirty rally car to hide some imperfections ;)
My first real weathering job.

Here are some pics of the (dusty..) engine bay which I finished today. Enjoy.

Nice weathering job on the engine.

Interesting project, I never know that the engine bay is only showing the top part. I've been wanting this kit for a while now.

That reminds me, I need to wash my car :grinyes:

i have this kit and the decals did the same thing to me! and when i pulled them out the water they just fell to bits,the
engine looks great! cant wait to see the rest

Good to see another WIP from you Martin!

Nice job on the weathering. The effect around the damper fixings is great.

(I have never seen a Quatro junker before :lol: ;) )
