What iv'e been up to, many pic's......

Im not much for progress threads so im just gonna show what im up to at the moment in one big post. The benz & the BMW were "captures" i made during the the summer at a model shop in Stockholm, been after them for a while. As you can see the other is an "ordinary" Aristo from HLJ. So.......no progress threads for these, they'll appear later completed.
Thanks for looking, Mike



Having to re-paint the body due to two small bubbles in the paint, mica red on top of gold. Chrome parts on engine are done with Alclad, chassais parts painted with highly polished aluminium. Stich dish rims.


Dark Mica blue. Not sure about the rims yet though.






Totally cut out the wheel wells here to get the wheels in and under, never done this before so im well pleased with myself. Realised later that a few bits would have to be left out (shocks etc) but i think it looks good anyway. Adding this rear wing from Aoshima. Wing bits & rims painted with Alclad's pale burnt metal.

Later, Mike
