Gulf Aston Martin DBR9, LeMans 2008, 1/24 MFH, finished

Maybe some of you remember this one...it was started in 2008 and finally I have managed to finish it.
I wanted to make real full build report and I did some good job in the beggining but takeing photos was to much...
Here is thread started to some point
http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...d.php?t=916415

So, in short, some exterior changes that were explaind in progress thread and a lot of changes in interior that you really can't see now because I was lazy with pictures. Paint is Zero, 2k clear, lot of scratch, wheels are tecnomodel, tires...I am not sure, front are Tamiya DTM and rear....I am really not sure

Biggest problem of this model is clear parts, that all you guys that build this kit know, the moment you touch them they get dull, put the decal on and no way to clean the residue.

Ok....photos









I hope you guys like it, thank you all for support in progress thread.

You've made the body look like a metal kit. Kudos.

That seat is really something!

OOOOH, I am jealous.

Have always loved the Gulf liveried cars, and you have certainly done this one justice.
Incredible attention to detail.
Everything looks just as it should.

very very nice aston.
yes clear parts on those models are a real pain, and place theme at the end is always a thriller...
U did it great.
