Hello Helge.
Nice project such an old Citroën, maybe you try some drybrushing on the chassis and the suspension parts, aswell on the engine.
I always do, that really bring those parts pop out and bring it to life.
You can also try some kind of wash on the engine block.

Regards/Gruß

Looks good , like it. I'm building a Mehari from Heller which has the same engine and underpan, but seems to be a bit more detailed ,keep on !

Hello Maurits, thank you for your reply. To drybrush some parts is a good idea. I will try this. The engine for itself got a washing. Maybe it is on the pics not so good to see.

Hello Julian, thank you for your comment. The Revell kit is still quite new so I am pleased with the engine details. There are still some parts missing. I hope I can go soon further on this project and upload some more pictures.

Album info

This model is my first car build. I´m very pleased so far with the result. I added some sparkplugs with cables to the engine. The rest is out of the box. I had two issues so far.
First: The hood isn´t closing complete, so I had to fix it.
Second: I used a too hot screwdriver to melt a little pin at the front axle. In the end I destroyed the hard point of the steering link. Luckily I could repair it. The build is a bit further now, but I haven´t taken any pictures of the parts.
