Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan, I am getting old. Nice one guys. Just call me 'Ol Easy Ed. Ya know, I've been building, off and on, for a year or three. Since 1954 actually and I had never seen a Magazine like yours. April was only the third issue I could get my hands on. I actually subscribed. The quality and content is beyond compare so, naturally, being an old geezer and all, I was absorbing every page. No reason to think otherwise, was there? All that great detail work and all the tips and informative instructions. I walked right into it. Couldn't figure out why I couldn't see the paint detail up close. Now I know. And.........I've been looking for that company since I saw that article. Good one. I owe you...............LOL...................Ed

Hello to All, Just a quick question. In the April Issue of Model Cars, HOWTO Section, there was a write up on a company, Scale Aerosol Paints, that produced a realistic carbon fiber spray paint. I have been trying to find some information on how to purchase the product and how much it might cost. There doesn't seem to be a web site or any other info on the company. Can anyone help me. Getting old. The eyes aren't what they used to be. Decals are driving me nuts!!!! This just fills the bill. Thanks in advance...........Ed

More....................!!!!

Thank you for the replys. I should have been clearer in my request. The Tamiya version of the Mercedes CLK-GTR is from the 1997 FIA GT Series. The engine detail is quite different from the pictures you posted. Specifically, what I'm looking for is the plumbing and wiring locations. Especially the overflow tanks, air accumulators for the shocks, etc. I have enclosed some pictures of my first try. Before the detail bug bit. Now I have aquired carbon fibre decals and some PE parts so I'm about to go nuts on another kit. All of your help is appreciated. I'm glad I have found this forum (thank you Model Cars Magazine!) and I think I'm really going to enjoy it. Been building by myself for years. Going to be nice to have people to bounce things off of. LOL

Hi, I'm new to this Forum but have been building for many years. I have a Tam. Mercedes CLK-GTR kit that I have been trying to finish for a couple of years now. I made the mistake of getting involved with detailing it. I know that Scale Motor Sport stopped making that great detail package they produced back when but I found a set from Studio 27. Problem is, I've knocked myself out trying to find reference material on this Race Car but I'll be a monkey's daddy if I can find any. I know this kit is being re-issued but I don't know if there will be enough interest to get any of the big Mfg. involved in producing any info. Can anyone please help me with this? I sure would appreciate it.
