Jaw dropping build. The hinges are insane. I'm wondering if the hood will fit perfectly once u've installed it.

Re: [WIP] Mercedes-Benz SL 65 AMG Black Series /Aoshima+Aber 1:24/

The body is already done - clear coat is 2K - mechanically polished. All the black accents painted Gunze C92 semi gloss black. Read diffuser is covered by carbon decal from Hobby Design.



Set for polishing.






Brake discs with the calipers. Gloss black from Gunze C2 and AMG washed by Testors emanel Ferrari red.



The wheels are fantastic - best parts of the model.


The exhaust is painted by Gunze Super Metallic and washed by smoke from Tamiya (by brush and by aero).

Test fitting

Almost done


Engine also already done. The engine cover is covered by the same carbon fiber decals and over coated clear then after some masking I paint the grey part Gunze C315. At the end I add wash and metal-transfers from Aoshima.
The drive belt I tried to do by myself using a tape but in finall results it is too thin.



Some test fitting at the end.

Some quick update.
A few shots at the balcony in natural light.







Started working over interior/cockpit.




Hinges at their places.

Amazing Work!! Are you going to do the recessed AMG logos on the interior door panels?
