Looking great!!

[Gramps46]

Excellent workmanship.  Your attention to the authentic details is noteworthy.  I like how you did a dark wash on the panel lines and the roof louvers in particular.  I am tempted to remove the sills and add them separately on my next Fujimi build.

Looks great, well done!

[TarheelRick]

Excellent rendition of one of the most beautiful car designs ever.  Your attention to detail is above reproach.  Thanks for sharing it.

Great work Josh.

[cobraman]

Fantastic looking GT 40 !

[Rich Chernosky]

Great job on that one Josh. I saw a picture of that car when it was at the auction and you nailed it quite well. 

[Venom]

Hey guys, thank you so much for your meaningful comments! I’m so happy that you appreciate it!?

[Hi-Po]

Beautifully done.  An outstanding job.

Fantastic build.  I hope when I finally build some of the embarrassing number of Fujumi MKI and MKII kits I have that they come out looking half as good as yours. 

[TransAmMike]

Great looking build Josh?

Thank you Rex... and we both know it would’ve looked lousy without the headlight covers. You spared me from a lot of headache... You the man!?

You’re welcome.  Glad I could help with the parts.

Excellent build with maybe the most striking livery of the '66 GT-40's. I especially like the look of the side window vents propped open.

[Randy D]

That is just plain gorgous Josh !!!!!

Thank you Phil... When I ordered this kit my original intent was to paint it in the livery of Ken Miles car, but the more I saw the pictures of all of them on the web I really took a liking to the gold one the most. At least for the 66 year like you said. The ‘peach’ color is a surprisingly difficult color to match.
