Will "Excellent first post! " be OK?

Fantastic build of a great car. Really.

I am very intrigued by the shading/color of the wheels. Can you tell me how you achieved that?

Superb model! Looks very very real to me!

PS: I thought it's a 1/24 kit, looks like the one I had in my stash!

I used Alclad Steel for the wheels.

Indeed a great build of a beautiful car.
Always love to see those Group C cars.

It's great to see one of the most emotive paint schemes in sportscar history...lovely job on the model and I agree with the others - the wheels look just right. Nice Job!
