I have started on this one, it is a very nice kit but Ebbro certainly like to make you work just to get the body parts together.....

Started the sanding process which is really needed on this kit, also i think whoever did the tooling was maybe not a fan, all these sink marks....OMG

I like that color choice a lot too Shayne. Probably about as close as you can easily get to the real car's color. |

Let the decal fun begin...The paint has an eggshell texture to it, but the decals adhere well to it. I have no doubt that it will pop when the 2K goes on it.

More decal work, the kit decals are very good and complying well with Micro Sol & Set along with the hairdryer.

Decals are now done and a little window of opportunity to get some clear onto the body parts. Loving the Gravity Colors Graphite under the 2K, it just shines. I have added the Johnny Walker decals as well and this brings the car alive.

I have a Tamiya James Hunt McLaren that was hung up because I couldn’t get the flourescent red... finally got the paint, and the build is still sitting.
This is borderline inspiring me to dig back into it...🤨 _________________ ON DECK/IN THE WORKS: too many started to list...
