1/43 Martini Porsche 936 - 1976 Le Mans winner (Ickx-Van Lennep)

N° 2 out of 8 is ready. Despite my 35 years of modeling experience I have to admit I made a "rookie-mistake" : I glued the headlight-covers with white glue (is no problem since it dries invisible) and immediately after I sealed them with clear coat (is no problem since it's a perfect glue as well). But : combining the 2 methods wasn't such a good idea because now the air can't reach the white glue so it (nearly) doesn't dry. I have been watching the headlights for 3 days now and I'm happy to announce that in fact they ARE drying up, although extremely slow!! In a few weeks (or months?) I'll post new pics showing the headlights as they should be...
For now you'll have to settle for these "rookie" pics...
