Engine details. Must have used enamel paint for the piping, way too shiny!

Beginners mistake... Polished too hard back in 2012 when I started the kit. Got bummed out and haven't touched it since - until now!

Spray can paint job, I'll leave it as is. This is my second kit so I try to learn as much I can and enjoy the process.

The top of that engine is beautiful!

Thank you so much! Next time I will try to thin the paint before brushing. There's quite a cool pattern molded in the plastic but the thickness of the paint filled it unfortunately.

It baffles me how different the paints are, my flat aluminum from Tamiya is soooo much harder to get a nice finish with compared to Tamiya Gold!

Finished this one yesterday. I can't really say "rushed it", but I didn't care to correct errors I made when I started it 7 years ago so the end result is... OK. Learned so much - second completed kit ever!
