Testing, never did a post before

Wow, beautiful work. What products do you use for weathering the engine parts? It looks so realistic.

Both of them knocked out of the park. Gorgeous!

Wow these are all great. Nothing beats the funky colors from the seventies. Beautiful builds!

Looking really good. Impeccable work as always with your builds!

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful and what great subject for a scale model. Thank you for sharing!

Thanks, silver before primer, most useful tip.

This looks most promising. What do you plan to do for the white over red plastic challenge?

Wow, this is absolutely delightful work. So much to absorb. Your engine looks so lifelike with the detailing but above all the beauty of the metalized parts showing just the right amount of tarnish/wear. Inspiring!

Superb interior detailing!

Can't wait to see the whole thing come together. You must be pretty close to the grand finale!

These headers are amazing! Do you use Evergreen rods or tubes. Just thinking tube would hold a bend better Thanks for sharing, I got to learn something new today. Cool stuff.

Looking closely...I want to learn how to make my own headers. Please start the lesson professor Mark!

Beautiful and creative approach to this build. No surprise since your modela are always gems! A pleasure to follow this one.

Wow! The detailing and weathering is second to none. Outstanding!

It's taking shape. The part on left side of the accessory drive is a dry sump pump?

Hey Mark, have you finished and posted this car somewhere? I need my fix man!

Talk about detailed research! I should spend more time with intake manifolds. Definitely interested on how you will fab this one!

Anton, some builders have developed techniques for brush painting Tamiya but I struggle with it on large surfaces. I use Tamiya only for small metallic type parts like exhaust headers, etc. Tamiya has a lot of great products but for large surfaces I have migrated to Vallejo. It's all about experimenting and developing a technique that works for you.

I totally agree, brush painting takes the weather out of the equation. A must for me because I build from November to April... in Montreal (cold cold cold) Thank you again for sharing your work methods. Exchanging learnings is actually the best part of the hobby for me.

beautiful detailing and the black chassis looks really good!

You'll make this one great with this quarter panel improvement...and an alt chassis of course!

She's getting more detailed by the day. Can't wait to see it all come together. Massive project!

What...afraid of success? I have no worries this will be another great build!
