Thoroughly enjoying the MP4/32 build. Thought I'd post a few quick pics of my heat-effect exhaust. This was done with an airbrush and Alclad paints. I used gold, violet, and blue. I do think it adds a bit of depth and looks quite good compared to the stock silver. It's lighter in person than these pics, and looks realistic to my eye. Very happy with this.

Here's a link to an article on how to do this, if you're interested.

Forgot to mention, the radiators were just a simple "wash" with some dark paint well-diluted. Applied with a paper towel, then wiped off to achieve the desired look.
