discussion Peugeot 405 T16 GR Paris Dakar

[Wendall]

Finished at last!

Whats happening here is poor Ari has a seized rear caliper and one of his mechanics has whipped the wheel off to take a look. didn't slow him down much as he went on to win!

I decided to break from my normal shiny finish and weather it up a bit, tried not to go mad and hopefully got it right. You may also notice that he's had a bit of a bump on the front corner!!! That's due to the carpet monster running off with the headlamp...

Anyway hope you like it.

Wow

Excellent finish! The decal work looks genial, the subtle weathering is more than correct. And I like a lot the whole little scene.

Is a great build

Cheers

Jason, that is just superb.....I literally feel Ari breathing down the poor mechanic's neck!

Great job.

Really good one Jason! Having owned an Mi16 & a Ti16, this has a particular interest for me (although neither quite looked like yours!)

Cheers
