Re: sauber mercedes c9

Just a little constructive criticism, instead of buying a $35-50 model, buy $35-50 worth of the paint and brushes required for those other models that did not get painted, I'm not criticizing your work, you can build the models really well, but you'll be more pleased with what a little paint and patience will do, I know I was when I would actually paint a model plane completely instead of just throwing it together, or my second ever bike build that took a month because I painted everything correctly.

Re: sauber mercedes c9

Your cars are getting better and better every time! But I do agree with outamyhead, when I was earlier in my modelling career (still a newbie) I bought really cheap kits, AMT $15, and then as I have got better, I am starting to buy a bit better and dearer kits!
