Indeed they are Jim but I'm thinking of blue, something more like this. Thank you Greg. I was a little worried that I would just mess them up in the attempt but I'm glad I took the chance. David G.

Hello Everybody! Now that I'm back from the long holiday weekend, it's time to get back to the bench. After attaching a final few pieces and a quick blackwash, the engine is finished. Not all that interesting to look at but there it is. On the actual car the wheels have holes which are represented on the model by the circular indentations that can be seen on the left wheel. Rather than trying to paint all of these little circles black, I decided that drilling them out would be easier. I think the wheel on the right looks much better with the holes drilled out. After a little more sanding and a coat of primer, the bodywork is coming along quite nicely. There are just a few spots that need a bit more attention. I'm still trying to decide what color to paint it. That's all for this round. If you're reading this then thank you for taking the time to do so. If you've ever followed any of my WIP threads then you also know that I welcome comments of almost any kind. Thank you. David G.

Thank you Daniel! I think the lack of seams has more to do with my photography skills than my model building skills. I always try to choose the most flattering angle. I'm glad you lie the crate too. I'm pretty pleased with that as well. David G.

That looks like it will be a lot of fun. David G.

Excellent paint and detail, that's one beautiful Jag! David G.

Nicely done! It is a bit of a fiddly kit but it does build up well. Yours looks great. David G.

Excellent weathering! Even the tires and wheels, which are sometimes missed by builders. David G.

Dang! 😮 That's impressively cool! David G.

That top end is coming together nicely Daniel. David G.

Best of luck with that glass John, that looks like a pretty challenging scratch. Have you considered a replacement? That bumper is shaping up quite nicely though. How do you plan to replace or touch-up the chrome? David G.

Nice work on the carriage light lens David! I'm amazed how useful Sharpie pens have become to me in model building. There was once a time when "serious" model builders scoffed at the use of such "unserious" tools. I don't recall if you've named the driver figure yet but I'm guessing it it wouldn't be Ol' Longshanks! Seeing how you sectioned that lower left leg makes me think it was way out of proportion to the other. Like the figure was sculpted to fit a certain application rather than just sculpted as a figure. Nice update though, I'm really enjoying following this build. David G.

Great work beating that chassis into shape Jim! David G.

Great idea for the floor pan Steve! Getting the floors painted and flocked is always tricky with those tub-style interiors. Nice work on the front suspension too. David G.

I hope you feel better soon! David G.

The fuel tank looks great! It does remind one of a condenser with that pigtail on it though David G.

Thank you Keith. David G.

Wow David! So many tiny parts with this one, it looks like they all came together well enough. I especially like the steering wheel and carriage lamps. I'm gratified that you've found my suggestion useful, it seems like it should work out rather well. David G.

Wow Bruce! That engine looks like the real thing. It'll be awesome with the color scheme you're planning. David G.

That is some next-level work there Len! It looks like it will be well worth the effort, especially compared to what Revell gave you to work with. David G.

Day-am Daniel! That is some of the most impressive micro metal magic I think I've ever seen! Kudos to you Sir! David G.

An excellent solution Jim! David G.

Great work on this John! The engine bay and interior look great, I love all the extra detail you're throwing at this. David G.

Hello Everybody! After taking a few days off to spend the holiday with family and friends, I'm back to "work". I made this little crate for Jack to stand on. It looks like the fun has begun! This is the last of the structural bits being added, mainly the wing flaps and one errant landing gear door and the left prop. Here's a quick shot of the flaps installed. This angle the prop and all the removeable hatches and covers in place. Also a test fit of the canopies. I'm hoping to have this one wrapped up by year's end and it looks like I might just make it. As always, Thanks for taking the time to look and please feel free to post any comments you may have. David G.

Thank you Dan. Yes it does seem to be a bit on the large side. Do you have any photos of the one you're working on? If so, I'd love to see them. Thanks, =D-

Thank you very much Carl. =D-
