Completed Astra DTM Team Phoenix
Well, I don't even want to guess at how long it's been, but finally I am getting back into building!
Finished this one today, started it two years ago in Australia! Carbon fibre decal throughout, detailed interior (pics when I've mastered the new digi cam!) One of the nicest kits I've ever built, only the rear mudguards stopped it falling into place perfectly. Tamiya paint used throughout, followed by Tamiya clear laquer and polished in the usual way. I'm avoiding automotive paints right now, too many paint cracking issues! Hope you like it. P.S. New site on the wy soon too I hope!

Re: Completed Astra DTM Team Phoenix
Hi, Dan! I guess old habits die hard. Can't think of a better way to have a comeback, and good job, it looks lovely.

Thanks!

The mirrors were painted using Gunze Sangyo Aqueous hobby colour, luminous yellow. Very watery, but if built up over many coats with a day drying in between it works fine. I'm very pleased with the mirrors, good copy of the real race car!
