    @2:40, you confess that you made a mistake. Heck, I'm was just glad to know that you're human like the rest of us! ha ha. Then you rework the model and it comes out beautiful and perfect, so I'm back to wondering if a Model God walks among us!
    Another stunning display of craftsmanship raised to the level of art. Bravo, sir! And thank you for sharing your work.

It is extremely helpful!!! I'm sure you said a few "bad words" when you discovered the clear coat cracking, but you "saved us" from them! LOL :D

    If this is the same kit Heller molded, it’s not easy. I’m going to rebuild mine after watching your video, to connect the rear cowl. The poor fit always bothered me. Historic information, the 20 car from LeMans had a color coded green grill paint marking. #22 had yellow, #21 was red. These were matched to the side light markers. John Wyer and team realized the painted grill didn’t really work, since after the first two laps on the wet and dirty course, they were rendered useless in color. Cheers and great job!

    Before you painted your orange stripe did you shoot a coat of clear first before masking? Every time I mask over my base it leave a residue behind. That’s even when I let it cure for a few days.
