Bainford Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Beautiful model. The subtle detailing pays off huge and has very good realism. The wheels make the build. Excellent work! I really need to pick up one of these kits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gluebomber Posted April 13, 2018 Author Share Posted April 13, 2018 Thanks again for all the kind feedback, Guys. Steve, sorry but I don't have any info on MG Models. When I bought the wheels about 15 years ago it was a one man operation in Italy. I did a quick search just now and can't find anything, so he may no longer be in business. If you're looking for photoetched wire wheels, KA Models, Model Factory Hiro, and Detail Master all have really nice sets with turned aluminum rims. In fact, they're actually nicer than the MG ones in that the spokes are finer and better represent real wires. If you are looking for real wires you might check out the Facebook page for Fernando Pinto Models of Portugal. He has several 1/24 sets available and he uses wire for his spokes. The rims and tires are resin, and may need some cleanup, but I've got a couple of his kits with wire wheels and you can get them to look pretty nice. Hope this helps and if you need any more info, please let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

58 Impala Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Very nice build, I have the same kit (unbuilt), I also managed to find the hardtop version of that kit, the Uhlenhaut coupe. Both on my list of "to build". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Macleod Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 I had this kit and either sold it or traded it off. This model makes me regret that decision. Great model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
