I can see you love your 'Busa Daran, you even keep it in a black velvet lined garage? Not sure why you leave your model outside though considering all the work you put into it to get it looking so realistic and that's a very cool diorama too, the groundwork is superb!? Blink Huh Confused Flapper BigGrin

Very nice mate, can't fault it at all ...... apart from that seam around the front tyre that you forgot to sand off?! Flapper Wink Wink Glare

Lovely job Nem! I like the way the decals on the model are actually clearer than the full size versions!!Cool Cool
That front tyre is obviously a brand new one, hasn't had time to wear the moulding line off (that's the excuse I'd use!)BigGrin
Brilliant work again!

Outstanding!
Did you disassemble for painting after you had finished the kit or did you wait until you had received all the packs that had body work?
I am doing the 'busa too and was toying with the idea of painting it...
Cheers, Gord.
