GTMust Posted May 26, 2011 Posted May 26, 2011 I'm in total awe of your work, but I bet a few members of the Jaguar owner's club will have sleepless nights if they ever see this! Fantastic workmanship. Tony

W-409 Posted May 27, 2011 Posted May 27, 2011 AMAZING! That can't be true. Your skills amaze me every time, but that paintjob is simply perfect. How could someone do that better? Great stuff, detailing is also very great, looks like 1:1 ProMod. That's simply amazing work, can't wait to see this one finished, it looks so amazing already. :lol:

Kit Basher Posted May 30, 2011 Posted May 30, 2011 Every time I look at this thing I think: "That is totally spectacular, but he's about done now." And then you do something even more outrageous! I couldn't believe it when you did the panelled front, and now the red! Just amazing.
