Tamiya Mercedes Original Teile DTM CLK 2000
Here is my Original Teile Mercedes CLK DTM from Tamiya. It is complete, minus the windshield wiper which I realized I had forgotten after taking the photos. It is painted with the Tamiya paint called for in the directions and using the majority of the Scale Motorsport PE set. I am pretty happy with it considering I thought about taking a hammer to it a few times. I love big decal jobs and have done 7-8 of them. However, I had a lot of trouble getting this one to look right in places. Tamiya does not point out that there is a recommended sequence of decaling and I found out the hard way. There is a WIP thread here:http://www.randyayersmodeling.com/mo...ic.php?t=78292 I am still working on the West car and put the first coat of Future on it today. I'll do another coat tonight and wait a few days and decide on a 3rd coat. Let me know what you think.

Re: Tamiya Mercedes Original Teile DTM CLK 2000
decals came out great, especially around the ductwork on the front fenders. Great job!!

Re: Tamiya Mercedes Original Teile DTM CLK 2000
Thanks for the kind words. Matthew, I actually cut the decals on the fender louvers into seperate decals. Otherwise they wouldn't have turned out as nice most likely.

Don't see these very often anymore. Spectacular build. What a great looking racer.
