Nice touch doing the silver dry brushing.
A lot of detail in that casting.

Very nice!! The silver outline on the decals looks great. Never saw these in person. Was the silver actually reflective on the cars?

Looks cool, love this model. The dry brushing is well done. Too bad that there are no CF decals for the inside of the monocoque. I have compared them with the decals of the 98T and you could use them partly as a template.
I am always happy to see a build of you.

Love this car. Your CF work looks just like everything else. Did you polish the hood?!?
