Modelmartin Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Nice job! The weathering on the frame makes it look like a Garlis car! How were the decals to apply? I have that kit and would like to build it someday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NitroJunky Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Cracking model well done I built a version of this some years ago, It was a straight from the box. my modeling skills wasnt the best back then and i recently put it in the "to re-do" pile and have since striped most of the paint.
