Revell JAGUAR XK-120

[happy grumpy]

The reason I bought this kit was the box art, it looks so cool and the subject was interesting so I went for it. It's not that old but not a super great kit. It has a few issues, the hood would not fit perfectly but in all, I am somewhat satisfied with it. The paint is custom mix acrylics coated with Mr. hobby super clear . 

Thanks for looking.

Very nice model. It's a wonder it hasn't been stolen in the dark.

NICE job, nice photos. The street-lighting is a superb effect.

I really love this kit. Revell did a stellar job getting the proportions and lines right.

I have several of the much earlier issue, as well as the diecast versions.

Beautiful looking paint finish and color. Clean looking trim and interior. Remember when these first hit the road and I was a middle schooler. While a born car crazy kid I never really noticed sports cars. The XK 120 changed all that for me. To this day I still think their body lines just will never go out of style.

Beautiful Jaguar.  Really well done.

[58 Impala]

Beautiful build.

I really like what you did with this kit. The color is different for a Jag but it works really well. Outstanding night time photography.

Very Impressive Mario.  Luv the color, the photography, and everything else about this build.  Stellar job. 

[Zippi]

Nice looking Jag Mario.  Turned out pretty nice.

I love this little two seater,it just looks like a blast to drive. Yours is very nice. Perfect color choice. From what I can see, the interior looks well detailed too. 

[bbowser]

I'll echo all of the above, plus great photos!

[Kah puts]

I say jolly good build there old chap ??

[Yeah Nah]

Your building skills are matched only by your photography skills Mario. Top job on this iconic Brit sports car.

Beautiful build of a gorgeous car. I love the classic ivory white paint and the details like panel line accent provide a lot of realism. Not a clear shot of the interior but it appears the instrument panel has received a lot of attention.

Beautiful photography further highlighting your excellent dioramas. Your builds are always a joy to see.

Congratulations on this wonderful model! Great! A real eye-catcher!
I've already posted my XK-120 here in the forum, I'm sure it can still be seen somewhere in the depths of this forum?
I made it in the exact same colors. That makes it very classy. I also gave the Jaguar a leather top.
Really great work and an excellent presentation! Keep on modeling!!!

There's an ancient Monogram diecast version too. Same kit, just a metal body...with pronounced parting lines on the sides that have to be filed flat.
