Very nice, love that H16 (except when I had to virtually drive one in Grand Prix Legends )
About the tire decals: when I look at period photos, the blue rings are hardly visible, so I choose not to use them. But if you want to use them, it could be an idea, to tone them down by using e.g. the Tamiya Weathering set or mix some acrylic flat clear with a bit black an carefully paint on the rings, this will also help to hide the imperfections.
Ok guys, I FINALLY got around to taking some photos with my DSLR, topic here: viewtopic.php?f=30&t=32123

Sorry for the very late reply Marco! I loved driving in for fun in GPL (and now Assetto Corsa) because of the amazing sound, but for an actual race, not so much.
Yea, I just hate putting those blue rings on the tires, I might leave them off on the next model I do that has them. I did spray some matt clear over the blue rings to tone them down but I agree, they are probably still too 'bright'. I like your idea, but I'm just done with the model and ready to put it in the display case!
