Finished! Mercedes 190E *3 PICS*

Finally finished my Mercedes 190E. This is the old Revell Road & Track kit. Brittle plastic, especially the spindles. Glad I had two of these kits.
Paint is Tamiya, TS-14 Black on exterior, TS-46 Light Sand on the interior.
Tamiya acrylics for the lenses. I also BMF'ed the tailight section as well as the turn signal front for a better look.
The wheels are Aoshima VIP Stich Dish. Car is also lowered.
Pardon the dust. Just can't seem to get rid of it.
More pics at the link.
ENJOY!

Those wheels really make that car!

The exhaust is the only real issue I have, well, I would have left the hood star off with the blacked out grill too.

Very nice otherwise!


The Revell Road and Track issue is just like the Fujimi only with poorly registered decals.

Re: Finished! Mercedes 190E *3 PICS*

Thanks for the compliments guys. I appreciate them.
Ferrari TR, what is it about the exhaust you don't like? I actually drilled out the black portion before attaching the aluminum pieces. It looks fairly realistic to me. Otherwise their is hardly any chassis detail.
I appreciate your candor. It helps me build better models.
Thanks
Chris
