Continuation of my Project R8, so far so good. Revell Germany is not a bad kit to build actually. I had tried Revell USA, Monogram and AMT before and for an inexperience builder I would highly recommend you stay away from those and stick with Japanese kits.
Sorry guys I didn't take any pictures of how I build the engine...

...anyway, here are the results. I always try to build my model as close to the original car as possible. I personally hate to paint parts which are not original to the car. e.g oversize ugly chrome rims, colorful interior and body color that doesn't even exist on the real car....
