Bainford Posted April 28 Posted April 28 I agree with the others; It certainly looks great in photos. Nice work. I'm looking forward to starting mine.

Then the mistakes start piling up and your realize it's gonna be another learning experience. Just have to stop making the same mistakes. I do like this darkened red for interiors as it doesn't scream 'look at me' and detract from the rest of the vehicle IMO. I go through the same thing. These days, I've pretty much adopted the attitude to just go with it, enjoy the hobby, try to shrug my shoulders at the mistakes.
Belugawrx Posted April 28 Posted April 28 We are our own worst critics...I think it came out GREAT! Love the interior shot.
cifenet Posted April 28 Posted April 28 Awesome work, I appreciate your description on paint choices also! The finished work is just top notch regardless the issues you mentioned. And lastly, great photography!
AMT68 Posted April 29 Posted April 29 The build looks excellent from here and the level of the kits detail is quite impressive.
ncbuckeye67 Posted April 30 Posted April 30 That looks outstanding to me! If you had trouble with the Tamiya version, I'm really worried about the old AMT version I picked up at a swap meet ....
papajohn97 Posted April 30 Posted April 30 Great job on one if not THE absolute best 1/24-1/25 auto scale model kits out there. Love the dark silver over red. Your pics makes me want to build another one of these.
Ken Car-Fanatic Posted May 2 Posted May 2 I like it! The photos make it look really nice. Sadly, I know all too well that there is no such thing a perfect build & even all the models that I've built over the decades, no matter how good I thought I had gotten, there's always things that go wrong & yes, we often are our own worst critics & always see & know where the mistakes are. But you have the correct attitude to just deal with them & learn & have just fun doing it. I don't focus on mistakes, just minimize them & focus on & appreciate the things that went right. I would have no problem displaying this on my shelf. The detailing & colors & finishes looks very nice. Great looking Benz SL !
Phildaupho Posted May 2 Posted May 2 Fabulous 300 SL. Photos look like they could have come from a Mercedes brochure !!
catpack68 Posted May 2 Posted May 2 Looks great to me! I was thinking about painting my Tamiya 300SL the same color. I really like the interior color too.
