My 2018 model (singular).

Only the one again this year, the old Monogram Jag XK 120.

I still visit this site almost daily and get a lot of pleasure from viewing all the great models that are built and presented here but somehow I lack the motivation to get to the bench myself. Oh well...

All the best for the festive season.

Wow!! That is nice! Excellent black paint which ain't easy to do!

The Monogram metal version this is? I've seen those, but can't remember if there was a plastic version or not. Yeah, getting something done this year has been a challenge for me also. I'll be trying to get that '74 Corvette done mostly this week before I go back to work.

Thanks guys, very much appreciated.

Bill, this is the plastic version, built from a 90s Revell AG re-release. Quite a nice kit in many ways but I swapped out the wheels, used tyres from the 37 Ford PU and spent a LOT of time getting the windshield to look right. There is an acceptable engine but the hood needed work and I ended up glueing it shut. I wouldn't like to have to do this to the metal version.

I know exactly how you feel, bud!, I only have one for the year as well....bums me out.  I don't know if this will make you feel any better, but the one you did turn-out, IS absolutely...perfectly stunning!!!!

Thanks so much Dan. I wouldn't say I feel bad about the lack of scale production I do aim to try harder in 2019. Cheers!
