Thanks a lot for checking in guys!!! I can say nothing close to Aoshima and Tamiya in terms of quality, even the kit gives me the challenge, its still a learning experience...  Cheers to all!!! |

I'll have to second that opinion with eastrock there dupes. Granted , eastrock is doing a magnificent job with this kit but Revell is always last on the list in regards to quality and fit. A lot of my automotive subjects are Revell based kits and sometimes I wonder what they were thinking when they designed their car kits.  |

Since I live in the other side of the world, Revell and ERTL kits are harder to come by even though they are made from china... they still ship it to US mostly, I usually ask a relative to buy me if they will be flying back to the Philippines... but I still like to build "Some" revell kits that interest me that Aoshima and Tamiya does not produce... Yes they have issues but in the end, its a learning curve, then you got an aoshima or a tamiya kit, it just walking in a park...
Now Lets get back on the bench and finish some queens!!!
Cheers!!!

Just a bit of progress Slowing making colors on the parts of the DTM, this will be a masking nightmare... but eventually will come to a close finish in due time...  Disc Brake Detailing... made the closest and available colors in my stash but this will covered up soon with the wheels  on the other hand I did request an extra sheet of decal to Revell... since of the decal part just crumbled and unusable... just hope they have an available copy, if not this will be a delayed build or have a look for some who can make me one... Cheers!!! |

Just an update on the DTM... I still need to save a couple more levels of patience when we are taking about the decals... its almost starting to stick really hard on the backing paper... its already about 5 years when it was printed, emailed Revell of Germany for a spare and informed me its already out of production (in short good luck!!!) so forgive me guys if this taking time to finish... to top it all, a client is a favor for to GTR's that's need to be done... plan to post the progress in a another tread.   Cheers!!! |
