      Scott you have made my mind up! Ive always wanted to do a flat black finished model and yours looks fantastic. I doubt that is going to be your final colour though

        cant seem to get the gloss varnish much shinier than this so the final finish might just be this way.

          What gloss varnish are you using?

              I have had a similar problem with getting a gloss finish using humbrol gloss varnish I have just ordered a few different gloss varnishes to try. I have only been using acrylic varnish up to now and sometimes it is dull and other times it seems to develop a crazing. Post on here if you have any success with getting a good gloss, apart from that, model looking good.

                  Looking good there Scott, may i suggest painting the brake calipers gloss red to make them stand out a bit, this is the norm on a Porshe.


                  Hope you don't mind the comment.

                    Nice work Scott, I'm getting into car building at the moment. I may get a few more.
