Mercedes 300sl
It's a classic car but I wanted to give it a slightly different look.
Blackboxstl W1 wheels, Print.pixel3d wheels aches both printed off by rj_model_kitbuilds on Instagram

Firescalemodeler was the paint of choice for this build.
Fire Black McLaren.
Firescale Gold for the trims.
Red leather for interior
2k gloss finish. (Didn't polish this second time round, bit worried after I messed it up 1st attempt ??)
Tamiya & Vallejo for other paints.

1st time I've fitted 3d printed extras. Bit of cutting and filling but it all went to together ok.

Struggling to get the true to eye colour of the car. The flecks in the paint pop in certain light & work with the gold.

All paints, 2k & Filler came from Dmodelkits
