Beautiful work! The stealth look is, in its way, very impactful and certainly plays to the strengths of the basic design. But you're right, it does serve to obscure much of the terrific work you put into this. After years of building traditional hot rod,custom/drag racing subjects I'm just beginning to explore the world of sports cars, both historic and contemporary, a subject in the 1:1 world I know a fair amount about, but, at least as an adult modeler, new to me in scale. The older subjects are pretty straightforward, they're largely about building replicas or interpretations of a period, of communicating the historic significance of the particular car. But the contemporary cars are far more challenging, IMHO, at least aesthetically. What to do to emphasize the strengths of the design and give the model that extra-special "zing"? Add the further challenges of doing it in miniature, and the challenge of getting past the potential "ordinariness" that's always a threat when a car is overly familiar is quite considerable. But this you have done so very well. What a bear this must have been to photograph!

If you mean "hard to photograph"in order to see individual details, then I would say," Heck ya it was!!"........cant see ANY of the cool details....its waaaay better looking in person.

I'm sure it is, and not just the detail work, but the impact of the monochrome style of the build itself and the disciplined execution.

It was a bit of a bugger to photograph in that aspect as well.....lol     -thanks again for checking it out!
