BMW M3 DTM, Beemax, 1/24

Post by MarcoSaupe »

Hi

I finished my next kit - as I liked building the Beemax MP4/2 I took their M3 kit from the shelf, which builds up to the 1991 DTM car.

It does not have the same amount of details - you can remove the bonnet, but you will only find an empty space below - but it builds into a nice curbside. The Bodywork can be removed anytime very easily after opening the bonnet. The decals work nicely, the golden areas are metal decals on a little extra sheet where you lay the rest of the logo on top. As with the McLaren I recommend giving all edges of the plastic a light Micromesh sanding.

Painted with TS26 and 29 per airbrush, Mr Superclear Gloss on Top. I added belts and fasteners.

Hope you like it.

Great to see one of these built. Top job!
I'm on a bit of a DTM kick at the moment, collecting Opels, Alfas and Mercs. Very happy to remember going to see these beasts at Donnington back in the day. Just need Aoshima to make us an Audi.
