Bastardo Posted August 17, 2013 Author Share Posted August 17, 2013 Weathered the glasses and made the whipers trails: That's it at the moment. I believe the car should be finished in a week or so. Need to weather the lights, add the licence plate, do some small paint touch-ups, assemble the model and perhaps fix a spot or two here and there To be continued!
