Little progress on the Audi, I filled some too large panel lines on the front fenders and sideskirts, then resribed them. Some work wad one on the engine protection, scraped heavily the plastic with different blades, painted kevlar / hairspray and white, then scraped back the white paint. Added some pigment / liquid soap / water wash to get some dirt on. The biggest progress was done on the recently received USCP engine. The details of the resin parts are awesome!
Really a worthy investment if someone want to show the legendary five cylinder unit tin the kit. It also includes an updated hood, so no worries about cutting the hood open. With a good paint detailing, you only need to add few screws and wires to make it look close to the original. I added some Archer weldlines to the air tube for some more realism. This resin detail, printed on clear decal film is really handy to represent some extra detailed weldlines all around.

I will use some plastic mesh to replace the thick photoetch on the rear fenders. For that I need to drill out the original plastic mesh and thin down to represent only the frame.
