Here's the Lotus Esprit that I just finished. This was an open-box kits that was missing a piece of glass, but I was able to cut the window from clear styrene, so it wasn't too bad. Other than that, the only other thing I did was add flocking - one color for the interior, and black for the trunk. The finish is Wet and Wild Burgundy Mist nail polish on top, with a mixture of Testors gray, silver, and steel on the bottom.

Oh, let's open the top and use the sunroof for the rest of the pics:

When you lift the back hatch, you get to the trunk and the engine cover:

Lifting the engine cover, you can view the engine:

Here's one last final parting shot:

Question for the OP. Where in the world did you find black flocking? I can't seem to find it anywhere!! Most places are sold out or have discontinued sales of black.
