Mercedes SLS AMG Drift

[PatW]

I built this about 3 months ago, but when getting to the last stage,  I found windscreen badly distorted and on warming it to correct it, it broke into 3 pieces. So I've had to wait until today when the new screen came from Revell.de to finish the build.

I've added seatbelts, scratchbuilt a half rollcage, painted the shell and engine bay with a mixture of gloss yellow and matt green. The decals are from the spares box. I also added the front splitter and a tuner style bootlid mounted rear wing

The doors click into the open position and shut quite well, the drivers side better than the other.

A bit leftfield, but I like it, the subject is great too!

Love the urban camo!  you definitely dare to do things different, and you do it well!!! -you also know how to balance color as well as detail, and you've defined your own style of building.  Well done! -keep'em rollin in!!

Thanks Dann yes I've got two or three kits already in the melting pot.(Aoshima Explosion, modifying suspension to get that extra camber on each wheel, paint,if any, decals Hellaflush, Liberty Walk look. Deora, lowered, camper shell colours, woody, coffee sticks or woody decalling with rear car seats inside. AMT Surf Woody, with Paddle tyres on rear to power through the sand! MPC Hombre Pickup, waiting to hear from BNL Resins, on Mud Bog,Sand Paddle Tyres and their new tracks (one for each wheel, see Ken Blocks Subaru on tracks, as well) I'm researching every day into new ideas, paint, stance, decals etc. Oh and another idea, just popped into my head, Aerosans, vehicles that look like ordinary cars but are on ski's with a small aircraft engine in the back with a propeller blowing them along! (admittedly mostly Russian in build tech)

What with having to feed eight of us today as well, couldn't be a better Christmas here in Buckingham UK and an exciting year 2017 building 'Different,Odd,Futuristic vehicles. I just can't wait!
