  1. Nice build, the underside looks great and like a car should! I'm a long way of trying that sort of detail
  2. That colour looks great, bet it stands out on a shelf!
  3. This is my first build I've finished and not thrown to one side. A lot went wrong, a lot was learned, a lot will be done better next time. But felt good to finish a model, this is an old mould and had lots of fit issues. I gave up blending the side (base to top of body) and realise that I could of done some more wet and dry to remove the sanding marks from filling sink holes. This was going to be the Oulton Park, first e type winner 'ecd 400' but I realised the roof is just a textured hard top and nothing like the real cars soft top. Everything is out the kit except I made some light housing out of an old birro pen after seeing a nother build do it. I'm using these starter kits to learn on before going back to a more complicated Camaro project. I have another e type that I'll take my learning from this one to do better. (I lost the indicators)
  4. I'm still practicing after your advise, Looking real good so far
  5. This has come out looking fantastic!!! Great looking car
  6. Nice work on the grill, an oddity on this racer. Still love that grandsport
  7. is this something that happens a lot in model making? Best keep an eye out
  8. That looks great, really enjoy the intercontinental challenge
  9. Been playing around with some paint pens, This is stock door cards but good practice for when finally do the real cards. The firewall is the one I'll install on the build
  10. Very nice, love the details and front looks great!!!
  11. That looks great!!! Blue coral car is one I'd love to try do
  12. Like the colour choice
  13. Really liking this, now I want to get out in the family b for a drive
  14. Going to follow this one. So like the boss Mustangs
  15. Nicely done. A lot models seem to lack some of window trim details and they look fiddly to make
  16. After having a read I see, colour I'm thinking of is safari brown which looks like it was used on a variety of Datsun/nissan just not GTR. Although few now wear it very well. Thanks for the information
  17. Love the colour choice! Always wanted to do one in the factory yellow colour
