Finished pics of Opel Astra V8

[primera man]

Heres pics of it all finished at last. More then happy with it.
What do you all think(be honest) as i'm thinking of using this model at our club champs later on in the year.
Well be in the class .."built stock from box"

Looks great mate!
How does box stock work? Could you add detail like lettering on the tires i.e an L for the left side and say a drivers name? Like they do on race cars!
Did you use the seatbelt decals?
It looks very crisp and neat, which will score it highly! Put it in for sure, it looks great!

3 new finished model pics today too! 1 from you, 2 from me! Is that some kind of record?

Three must be a record :flash: :flash: ...your starting to knock them out to fast mate !!!

The rules say you can only use what is in the box when it was made.....nothing else allowed.....fullstop.

Donno mate! Looks pretty shoddy. I'd be embarassed to show that to anyone. Looks like a big pile of shite to me. You'd better just box that up and send it to me, I'll dispose of it in the proper fashion.

In case you didn't catch my sarcasim, It looks excellent.

Ok, guys....No more Mountain Dew, Vivarin, No-Doze modelling here!! Get some sleep, re-introduce yourselves to the family, and relax.....It's plastic but it won't melt if you let it rest!!


BTW- Looks great! Definitely a contest contender!!

Very nice looking Warren,

I'm trying to think what else to build to put in my second cabinet once I've finished all the rally cars I have to build (or even started them for that matter). The more I look at that model I'm thinking German Touring Cars, Mercs and Astras.

Nice One,

Steve

Go for it Steve! It looks great even unmade!

[Twist]

Wowee! You guys truly have an overabundance of talent!
Keep up the superb work!

Imagine this: 1 year ago, PMan got exactly 7 replies directly related to his posted subject. Nowadays, we fill 10 pages when he does that. Jeeez, this place has been growing the last 6 to 7 months or so.

Anyway, most of you might have seen this Astra, but I just wanted to say TOP JOB Warren.
