Wow! I am thrilled by this project! All of your models impress me, and this one is (as always) beyond expectations.

updates:

Bodywork done, polished and trim put on. Like they say, the Devil is in the details.

Provisional licence plate as the car is transported from the factory to the race team.

Manufacturers labels, engine dataplate, all the details are here:



interior roll cage fitted and finished.



Missing exhaust and spoiler.. coming soon



The car will be displayed with one side exposed (no wheels). This will be the side open. Note the CF A-pillar trim and AP racing brakes.



menacing view.. airbox is left off for now.



Front is being worked on too. The underside will be covered in carbon kevlar decal to represent composite body.



comments please.

Re: C-Klasse DTM *stripped*..somewhat detailed.

You know,
This is one of the cars I will get for REAL!
Its actually my favourite car of all time,
C class, W202. If I had one and had some serious bling, I would defiantely make it to an equivalent DTM mod.
Propz!

Re: C-Klasse DTM *stripped*..somewhat detailed.

This is truly insane, great work all over. To bad that front bumper will hide that master work CF-ing job you did, then again you will probably leave the hood of.

Re: C-Klasse DTM *stripped*..somewhat detailed.

Yeah, my plan is to exhibit the final product as an "open" blow up version, with the wheels, hood and airbox off. I am thinking about the total presentation...but I haven't finilized it.

Just amazing work. Your clean building and detail is always hugely impressive to me. Just gorgeous! I love this build up.
