Revell 07131 - BMW 3/15 ps (Dixi)

[Thegs]

Hi I'm Gerwin. I'm from from Holland, so sorry for the bad english. I've been looking around the forum and saw some amasing things. But i would like to show some of my work. This is a WIP BMW Dixi from Revell. So far it's a nice kit and I love building it.
This is a picture of the kit:

This is a picture of the part painted body:

And a little picture of the undercariage:

After the picture I've still been busy. I painted the wheels black and the interiour is finished. I'm not able to make new pictures because I don't have a camera.
Comments are welcome on my first kit.

It would be nice if somebody would have idea, chance, finance, time, courage and skills to buils a entire line up on BMW (or other brands) car that are avaliable in scale.

Big problems !!!!

After I painted the rims/grille/headlamps I was satisfied with the result. I painted it with Revell 7 (black). When it was dried I got my can of Tamiya Clear and painted the part. But after ten minutes a big disaster happened. The Tamiya paint eated up the Revell paint. The problem is that Tamiya and Revell use different thinners. So I'm going to start over today.

Too bad! I hope you can fix it all ok, this is a very neat project that I am interested in seeing complete.
