Talking Mercedes Benz SLK progress

This is my first model on this thread and its going to be box stock.
The paint is Tamiya Dark Green. The color looks lighter in the picture. Im getting warmed up for my next model the revell MKII or Fujimi MKII.


After two coats of primer



Interior


And the Chassis


Thanks for looking, more pictures will be up tomarrow. Feedback is welcome. And if anyone knows, which Gti MkII kit is better?

I've nearly completed my current project, and picked this kit up from eBay for £3.20.. It's my next build, but I'm going for silver. Your build looks to be off to a good start.. Well done.
