Re: 1-24 MFH Aston Martin DB-R 9 Silverstone 05
It looks like I fell a bit behind on this wip, great catching up with a whole bunch of updates in one shot. I like your casting progress pics. I believe that it is glass behind the casting box but the rest of your skills and this model are truly magic.

Re: 1-24 MFH Aston Martin DB-R 9 Silverstone 05
finally a update
 I finished all CF decals on the body + the normal ones... CF around the headlight was a major pain in the *ss..  But patience and Micro Set + Sol worked after some tries. One thing I noticed are the two red (or yellow depending on which car you build) stripes at the front which are really hard to apply nicely. But the real problem is that they are to small, they should cover a bit more of the hood...I think painting them would be easier and better but I just didn't have a suitable orange in my workbench... Oh and last little tip the driver names have to be placed right above the orange stripes on the doors and not on the roof!! The instructions are a bit misleading... but luckily I noticed it soon enough    close up of some of the CF decals + turned exhaust tip  I couldn't resist... I made a little testfit for the big spoiler. And I think I found the perfect model for the Racingminiatures CF base. opcorn: opcorn:  It looks like almost finished but there's still a lot to do... now I let everything dry properly then I can apply another coat of Finisher's 2K clear (to get that nice tone of the green back...  ) and in the meantime I can make some more progess on the interior! |

Looks super!
 Nice turned stuff on there buddy  The base is just great too! F**K you are right about the name decals. Now I can throw my build in the garbage can

Masterful - this is just stunning. I'm sure it will be even more dazzling with final clear, but it looks perfect already. I can't stop staring at it, I especially like the CF skirts.

Re: 1-24 MFH Aston Martin DB-R 9 Silverstone 05
Oh yeah! This one looks very cool!
This is the best part of the modeling; the final coat is just about to go on and you get excited and "feel" the anticipation of wanting to see the final result!

Saint,
it looks great really does and your right about the base too, a perfect patch! Yours and Ste's builds of the car have just about wrapped it up, they are both just tooooo good man! Have to admit I prefer the orange stripes though.. sorry Ste!

I'm looking you guys side by side since I need to choose if do the orange pillar's 06 007 or the yellow 009: btw I'm upset with Klutz (note: I used the nick LOL) since every time I see his nick on an update is on Dennis thread LOL. At work man! Great job Saint. I'm learning (ok also keeping LOL) a lot from you guys on this matter.
