Let me first admit that the BMF on this kit is pretty bad. I started a new sheet of the stuff and had a lot of problems with it. Now I do not enjoy doing BMF very much but never had the problems I had before. Old sheet ? I don't know. Got it a week or so ago but that doesn't really mean much. Anyway, car is painted with French Blue with a white top. Pegasus wheels and twin sunken antennas are about the only items not from the box. I think I will start buying more kits that don't need BMF. Also, I did use a new blade. Look at photos at your own risk ! : )
