Nice tribute. The chop is bang on, nice looking build. I really dig the orange version, although I'm partial to anything orange.

That is really sharp, the paint is brilliant, love the gold fleck in it. Good luck with your eye situation.

Really beautiful build, you have done an outstanding job with all the little details. I like the header cut off plate feature you added, nice addition.

Man that really rocks, all the added detail is fantastic.

Hi guys. l've been thinking about one of these for traveling. Does anyone have any real life experience with this model? Thanks for looking in. http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Portable-Hobby-Airbrush-Paint-Spray-Booth-Kit-Exhaust-Filter-LED-Light-Set-Model-/391429084698?hash=item5b22fdd61a:g:9zkAAOSwy5ZXByue

That is one little car, looks like it could have been a mid '80 version of a Mini.

Good going John.

Thanks again guys for the kind comments, it sure was a blast to build.

Lots of great progress John, keep it up man.

Very interesting WIP, great work on the corrections. I am impressed that the front end was cast in two parts. Looking forward to watching the progress with this.

Beautiful work all round.

Sharp looking project, I'll follow this one.

Looking good! I like the stance.

Good luck with this build, sounds like you are jumping right in. Only advise I would give is don't sweat too many details, Just have fun and avoid getting too bogged down with details that won't be noticed and not completing it.

Great work afx.

This is really cool, good luck with the build.

Some really clean work going on here, keep it up.

Very cool.

Good start!

Sweet, nice tribute and good looking start.

Model master Arctic Blue Metalic.

First few coats of orange. I was going to go with florescent orange Zero paint but a test shot revealed it is crazy translucent and I don't want to put that many coats down. So I went with Jagermister orange Zero paint. This isn't a fade paint job, I am just laying the orange down all over outside the panels so as not to handcuff myself with future options if things happen to change. Thanks for following along.

Crazy, I like it, it looks like a junkyard dogs home.

I like the mod you have planned, go for it.

So as I have worked through the different ideas and tried a few techniques I still have no real plan worked out, only snippets of ideas. Althogh I have managed to get the base pin stripping laid down and clear seal along with a number of white base coats. Next up is the black base for the black Chrome. For those interested, I have included my todo check list of where I have made it so far in my grand plan. Thanks for checking out the progress.
