Smile In Progress- Merc-Benz SL500 AMG

It's so hard to find the time to work on this , 10 minutes here, 10 minutes there.
I was happy to see it start to look like a car, so I posted a few pics.

Thanks for looking

Talking

Thanks for the comments

Yes it's the Tamiya kit sprayed in TS40. Lowered the suspension in front, with 19" Profound wheels. The exhaust is a metal Fujimi which was a bit overpriced IMO at over $12 but I thought it looked correct on this car.

My cat seems to be a bit insecure about being so short so I put her next to the little car to give her a little ego boost

If I can get my 9 week old puppy to sit still maybe I can get her in the next pic.

Thanks again
