PARTSMARTY Posted April 23, 2018 Posted April 23, 2018 Hands down-an absolutely perfect build-wow !!!
Gluebomber Posted April 23, 2018 Posted April 23, 2018 Beautiful build, Peter. I recently finished this kit and also wrestled with the windscreen. Yours came out a lot better than mine. Outstanding work!
E. Raza Ronny Posted April 25, 2018 Posted April 25, 2018 Wow, tremendous work on an old kit. Absolute pro.
Anglia105E Posted April 25, 2018 Posted April 25, 2018 Excellent build there Peter, and this model is so much better than the diecast Bburago version that I have. I really do need to invest in the Revell kit version that you have built so well. Some diecast model motor cars in 1:24 scale do look very realistic, but I can't say that for the Jaguar XK120. Your attention to detail has inspired me, thanks. David
PhilX Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 Very nice work. The paint job is perfect (not to shiny). With what did you re-chromed the windscreen frame ? I am actualy building the same model. I noticed an important gap between the hood and left fender.
peekay Posted April 26, 2018 Author Posted April 26, 2018 Thanks very much for all the comments, they are much appreciated. About attaching the windscreen: I drilled holes on either side at its base and into the body to accept wire "bolts", which I later glued in place. These can be seen in the photos. I then thinned the frame down and had it re-chromed professionally.
traditional Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 Peter, That looks OUTSTANDING!!!..... beautifully finished and really nicely photographed.
Plastheniker Posted April 26, 2018 Posted April 26, 2018 As always from you: SIMPLY PERFECT! Another proof that a skilled modeler does not depend on one of those sophisticated modern Aoshima/Fujimi/Tamiya aso kits ( aka Milli Vanilli kits....).
peekay Posted April 27, 2018 Author Posted April 27, 2018 Thanks so much Clifford and Jürgen, glad you liked it!
1959scudetto Posted May 11, 2018 Posted May 11, 2018 Excellent Jag you show us here, Peter - and hghly professional photography!

geetee66 Posted May 13, 2018 Posted May 13, 2018 Wow! I agree with everyone else. High quality work. You did it real justice! Paint is exceptional.
f1ford48 Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 It LOOKS REAL. black is a hard color but you nailed it, windshield is much nicer and seats have great color and texture a very fine build
