Re: Alpine A110 1600SC

A little update!

Progress is rather slow on this one.
Paint was very difficult to polish because of all the molded in details.
I've used BMF for the first time, and I can't say I'm enthusiastic about the results or by the process itself, very time and nerves consuming.

The fit of the clear parts (especially the ones for the main headlights) isn't as good as I would have expected from Tamiya.

A few pictures, to illustrate the situation:






A few mock ups with the windshield (I'll have to add the chrome trim before I glue it on).



Comments and suggestions are welcome!

PS: I hope I'll be able to post more updates tomorrow.
