This will be an interesting thread of an interesting subject. I also have Ken's transkit and those panel lines are very shallow indeed, but I think he warned about it somewhere in the instructions or on his webpage. My solution was to scribe all the lines deeper with 0.15mm etched saw blades.

I'm still pondering whether I'll build mine as the victorious Monte Carlo car or the tragic TdC version. The Monte car would allow the nice rear wheels to be shown without the carbon shields and maybe I could build the auxliary headlights from scratch too. I think the extra light pods might give more character to the nose.

By the way, are decals easy to use or do they need any special tricks? I have never used ALPS printed decals and I would like to know if there is anything out of ordinary when using those.

Maybe I'll do a WIP thread of my model too, although my building pace is quite slow. I'm just cleaning up the parts right now and the body has got its first coat of primer.
