Talking Tamiya Mercedes CLK GTR

Hey everybody,
I'm back again. I haven't been on AF for a while due to my hectic senior year in highschool. However recently, I had an opportunity to borrow my friends digital camera and I took pictures of my completed Mercedes CLK-GTR. This was the first Tamiya model that I bought, which was 2 years ago. I had alot of of school work to do then also, so I worked on it on and off for one year and I finally finished. Then one year later(2003)..lol ...I finally got my hands on a digital camera to post the pics, which I told everyone on AF I would at the time the model was finished(2002).
I built this model stock and every part fitted together very well. The detailing is just amazing and it makes the model look as if it weighed a ton. I decided to make the CLK-GTR a street version because I thought that it looked very sleek without all those decals and I painted it with Tamiya TS-21 Gold.
So here are a few pics. I'll post the rest in the gallery when I get a chance, so look for them there later on.

In Goldmember's voice : I loooove gold, care for a smoke ana pancake?

Seriously, would've looked sleeker with Mobil 1 on the wing.
