1957 Mercedes 300SL

Hi all, my latest build is complete.



I relpaced the plastic stamped on mesh with some real mesh.







Many thanks to you all for assisting me in the bodywork process.

Stunner!!!

Lovely job D and superb interior.

Guess you are feeling better now eh?? LOL.

Another outstanding build. Well done, sir.

Wow, this is stupendous! I hadn't seen it before so I had a long look through your work-in-progress on this car. I really enjoy your detail painting. Every area of the model is perfect.

What a beauty. Stunning build.

Stunning interior and very neat, detailed engine are the highlights! Congrats and thanx for sharing the process.

Wow! What a stunner! What kit is that?

Beautiful! Absolutely classic and sleek as all get out

Many thanks for the positive replies.

It is a really old Italeri kit. I found it on e-bay. I would imagine you would be hard pressed to find one these days.

That sure is a great build!

very ice indeed

colour is nice, what paint did you use

That's a thing of beauty and no doubt.

See below for a list of flaws:

NONE!! That is truely a modeling masterpiece

Here in the U.S. only the gull wing coupe by AMT was available. In either form it's a great model. I can't say I agree about all the design elements of it (headlights/covers especially) but it makes for a great model anyway!

That's a gorgeous build Mr. H! You put a lot of class in this classic and your results are grade A!!!

Hi,
You nailed it! Awesome colour choice and paintjob!

Onto the next & Thanks for sharing,
Nuno
