Cool. There's a guy building a metal 1:10 version on here. He spent like 3 grand usd on the transkit. Your detail work is phenomenal, and the car looks killer.

Awesome work man, you keep up in this pace you are going to make this just perfect.

Tip: Use a little carbon Fiber accent on the engine bay, make it look cool.

you should try it in 1:43 I couldn't see for few days
The work on this one is realy fine, I like all of the washes, that is the way it should look. I hate when it is to clean, doesn't look real like yours. Very nice.
