I started this kit a long time ago, but the progress is quite slow. Now I took some photos from the almost finished parts. I used S27 and Renaissance carbon decal.

See images below!

looks pretty sweet, i want to build one of these one day, however money doesnt allow right now.

one thing though, it took 7 mins for your pics to load, might need a new photo host.

Yeah, takes ages to see those photos.. Worth of waiting? Yes..

I dunno what you guys are talking about, as the pictures loaded up nice and fast for me.

I wish I had the budget for those awsome resin kits. Great work!

Maybe there was a problem with the image host server. But for me the pictures appears immediately when I open the thread.

The purchase of this kit was quite strange. This is a french kit and I live in Europe. But, it was cheaper to buy it from a US shop including air postage fee.

I hope I can finish it still this week. Than I will start new thread with finished photos from a .com image host for faster download

same here. After 5 minutes I only see 3 pictures.

geronimo77 · #9 10-31-2005, 09:56 AM

After several complaint for the image host I uploaded the pictures to a different (probably faster) host.

I hope now everybody will see them

Update will come soon in a "finished" thread

Hi,

yep, much quicker, nice CF-work, looks good so far

rx7king · #11 10-31-2005, 05:57 PM

nice work with the cf, this is a sweet car, good luck with it

geronimo77 · #12 11-01-2005, 12:44 PM

Some progess. More CF work and the fuel cap.

Still a lot of CF work has to be done. But I do no give up

cinqster · #13 11-02-2005, 08:26 AM

Looks really good so far.

Incidently, there's a nice piece on the production of the Amalgam 1/8 Bentley in this months SMI - which nearly makes up for the Airfix 1/12th Blower bentley build in the same issue!
