Sauber Mercedes C-9

this has spent far too many years in the stash, finally its time has come lol Revell 1/24 Merc C-9

not the greatest detailed kit and im going to have to use Revell paint, to get the right shade, which im not too happy about











im not going to do the Kouros version as on the box art......theres an alternative in the box for the Mike Thackwell/Johnny Dumfries/Henri Pescarolo car for the Nurburgring round of the 1987 World Sportscar Championship ......they ended up as a DNF after 130+ laps but i like the paint job better......should look like this

what a glorious noise!

Paul,
the Revell model is the reboxed Hasegawa model
If, like me you hate the Revell 'eye of newt & toe of frog' paint mixes, then if you can locate the instructions for the Hasegawa model, this should give you a more reasonable colour match......................
