Wrebbit Mercedes 500K 1/18 Wooden Model

[rumb]

Here is the model I am working on.  Had this kit for a few decades and decided to build it.  I suppose most people finished it with varnish to show the wood, but I never found the wood to be that nice, so I decided to paint it. Kit is definitely advanced material, You need to always be looking forward in the instructions to see how it all will fit, especially with paint so you dont paint matching surfaces.  I have been trying to make the body removable, but I suppose it will get joined at the very end. I cant install the steering until the body is attached. I want to paint the body completely before that step in gloss red. I have detailed many parts to improve over what was supplied.

Oh that is beautiful!! 

Such a different type of kit, and thank you for sharing your progress! 

This should be even better once finished!
