Welcome to AF. Great first post too, I really like how you covered the headlights. Looking forward to more from you.

Welcome to AF! Nice models, i like the dirty after-race look

[MidMazar]

Sweet build, suttle weathering job. Looks like it would look great on a diorama.

Hi Jens,

nice to see another German modeler in AF.

Model looks nice, weathering is great, not too much.
What did you use to cover the front lights? Looks like thin plastic?

[p9o1r1sche]

I like it. Nice job repositioning the driver's arm.

Welcome to AF.

[Veyron]

Nice finish!

[klutz_100]

Excellent build in every aspect

I hope that you will be sharing more of your work and techniques with us so we can learn form you?

Great build Jens! Weathering is very well done and I really like the addition of the driver waving to the crowd.

Moin Jens, willkommen bei AF. Great work. How long have you been modelling and do you have more up your sleeves to share? BTW, I live rather close to you in HRO. What will be next?

Slick Build and nice subtle weathering also

[dlphnfn]

Great work! Those headlights are looking fantastic! I love the taped up look and not too much weathering, but enough to be convincing... Nice!

Yes, I used thin plastic from a garbage bag. I tried first clingfilm, that was however not so good.

Yes, I will do. But I must learn also still much of you.

I modelling with some breaks since 2002.

This model is my first completed since 2,5 years and the first im after-race look. I had longer time no more pleasure to modeling.

For the moment I work on a Porsche 917k Psychedelic. I use for it however decals from UMI-Modellwerke, and those fit rather badly.
