    Skoda S2000 Belkits

    Ok, so my first build post here, and Some background.
    I have only been scale modelling for 1 year after my brother bought me a Tamiya Yamaha xvs motorbike kit for my birthday, it sat there for a few months then i decided i would give it a bash.
    turned out not great but i loved it and have been hooked since then, skills/experience are coming along still a long way to go . I saw the Belkits Skoda S2000 kit on ebay for a decent price and thought i would give it a go ( i am a Skoda Master technician as my day job). So having dome some armour kits

    The build was testing , instructions pretty basic, kit fit and finish was quite good, decals....NIGHTMARE ! my first bash at multiple decals ,chalk it up to experience.

    Anyway kit built, painted and my attempt at weathering.......

    Cheers
    Chris

            Chris - looks good! - decals on these rally/race cars can always be tricky! - what have you got on the starting line for your next build?

                    I would be very proud of that Chris.
                    Strength isn't about what you can do, rather it's about overcoming what you thought you couldn't do.

                        Thanks for the comments guys , makes a difference, i will do another car at some point as the skills needed for paint finish are quite demanding and testing.

                        Thanks Dave, up next im not sure
                        I have the option of trumpeter MT LB 6MA
                        Trumpeter T-90s modernised , ( with a strange figure inside the kit which may be Putin ?)
                        Tamiya 88mm Flak 36/37 set
                        or
                        Trumpeter Maus , thats the extent of the stash just now so not sure what to do next. I'm gonna take a week out as i need to tidy the cave i'm definately not the cleanest of builders.
                        However forever seem to be looking for kits so something might pop up
