Alpina Z8 Roadster

This model was a gift from my colleague /friend/ and boss of group in work. Hope You enjoy it Fernando. Concretely it is an ALPINA Z8 Roadster from Revell in 1/24 scale. Body was pre painted in midnight metalic blue also used for SONY Bravia tv´s. Another parts were without any touch. I choice colours for interier according real ALPINA. This kit is without engine, but due to this was build faster. Chassis were painted base on real car, also wheels. But for interier I used another scheme not one from instructions. Interier in colours from instructions will be ugly in my opinion. I used semi-matt red-brown, black, and silver. First time I used also silver marker Edding its easy to work and paint small parts, details and final effect is like chrome. Model offer the possibility open or closed top I choice open, I think that car look better without roof. The hardest part of building was assemble interier to body, fitting was more than bad. I spent with this assembling half a day, finally it doesn´t look bad. For more details of building and pictures of finished car please click on bellow buttons.
