jbattersby Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 This was my second model I started after good 9 year hiatus due to school/work. I started it mid 2013 and is now nearing completion. Here are some of my build pictures leading up to the current status. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rsxse240 Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 So you decided on naughty rather than nice (Christmas commercial). I like it. This happens to be my favorite MB next to the early 90s 500sl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austin T Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Excellent build so far!Also I really like you photography. You should consider picking up Tamiya's recent release of the 300 SL to display next to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbattersby Posted May 9, 2015 Author Share Posted May 9, 2015 I'm now into the final stages of assembly for the SLS. The front end turned out great, but I ended up getting a bit of glue on one of the doors and it just melted the paint immediately. I will hopefully repaint the door this weekend and finish up this model! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragline Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 I have this kit on the back burner. I recommend the Studio 27 detail up kit. Full of nice goodies. Looks good BTW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbattersby Posted June 21, 2015 Author Share Posted June 21, 2015 Finally I'm back from holidays and had some time to finish up some work on the SLS. Not much left to do but attach the mirrors and the rear logo and she's done. Lookout for some finished photos soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
