Thank you fourseas (and everyone else) for your positive comments. I actually thought about sending some pictures to Italeri just for the fun of it. I might jyst do that.

I love model cars especially well built. Yours is superbe. If I had more time, I'd probably try to make one, all I can do is admire
Thank you WojtasS, if you liked this one, I'm sure you'll like my next build also. If everthing goes to plan, it should be even more detailled than the Alfa.
Here is the link to it's build log. Not much done yet but it will give you an idea.

Airfix 1/12, 1930 Bentley Blower build log
Hello, I recently purchase an Airfix 1/12 scale Bentley Blower. I'm starting this log not because I'm starting the build, that's many months away but because I wanted to talk a bit about the ground work I'm doing and the route I intend to take. This is an old model dating back to the 70's...

For those of you who might be interested, here is a link to the build from day one to the end (or close to, still have the decals to but on and a bit of weathering to do). It's always fun to see the evolution. Might be some redundency in the photos.
Alfa Romeo build from start to finish
Happy viewing!!

I'm new here on this site and very glad I found it. Especially this blog! I enjoyed it very much and love the end result.
Last year I bought this kit and made a cautious start with replacing the spokes. Not very satisfied with the result I put the kit aside.
After reading this blog I saw the light and now I'm in business again.
Francois, you build will be my guideline but I realize that my skills are not so developed as your's.
Thank you voor de nudge

Hello everyone, I finally finished the Alfa today. Applied the custom decals and did a bit of exhaust fumes. Here are a few new shots. I'll try and take more pictures soon so it can finally be but in the showcase.
I'll be presenting it, along with a few other of my models including the "in progress" Bentley Blower at a local model show. I'm curious to see how it will faire up.

Hats off, as always.
we are crossing all fingers for a success in this event - please show us some photos to get an impression....
Best of luck! I'm sure your Alfa will be in the running for Best of Show !
You need to point them to this thread so they can see all the custom work you have done on this model !
