Audi R8 '05 Le Mans Winner

Here is my Le Mans week-build.

Body painted months ago, everything else done during last week.

Kit is Le Mans Miniatures 1/24 Resin kit, painted with Tamiya Pure White spray. Quality is really great, i didn't have any problems while building it. Only non kit items are cf-decals and some antennas. I'm quite satisfied with the result, couple of small decal problems are clearly visible though.

well done, the Audi R8 was still the best, and the Champion livery was the best, mainly at night with the luminisent colors.

Nice Work! I thought about taking this as my first resin / multimedia-kit. Would you recommend it for a resin-beginner?

I'd say yes. You can see here what is in the box. Only problems that i see are interior details that are cast into passenger side interior panels (typical LMM), and the rear spoiler which might be tricky to assemble. Decal guide is only couple of printed photos. Everything else is great for a first resin kit: relatively cheap price, good parts fit, very little flash.

Thanks for the photos and review of the kit. I find this information so much more valuable to the overall build! As for your build, I really like this livery and your execution! I will be looking for one of these now!
