Tamiya Mercedes Benze SLR McLaren

It's finally done. Lots of pictures, driver's door and hood opened and closed pictures.

Nice Mike.

The pics are s bit too big to register fully though.

And there it is. Nice shiney black with lots of detail to back it up. I wouldn't mind a go at this one. Are there any number plates with the kit? I can't remember whether you already mentioned it or not but was the carbon decals part of the kit?

It does come with European style license plate frames, no decals for them. I bought the Scale Motorsports CF decals but they are a waste of money. There's nothing to show on the body panels that are CF. I can't see putting them on the insides of the panels. If you want to give the body a CF finish then you put them on the outside and don't paint in except for a clear coat.

Still looking at a 3/4 picture.

I know. I haven't had the time to upload resized pictures yet.

No worries, be nice to see them when you get a chance.

Excellent, particularly with hood and doors opened
Photographs are only in two dimensions, and seeing the model in ‘real’ life would be the only way get the real picture.
It’s hard to portray all the hard work and effort that has gone into the model - but it looks great from here.
