Very nice work, looks good!

Don't take this as criticism, but the shut-lines are a bit dark IMO

For a white body I usually water down a lot for that, and apply several light coats to build up a nice subtle grey, and it gives a gradient of the shadow also, and it works over wheel decals too for a slight 'wear' look

Well done! :)

No problem, I just matched the method that others who built this used. They wont look as dark when almost every square inch is covered with red white and blue decals. :D Can you tell I am looking forward to the decals?

cool , i agree on the panellines being a tad to dark but i also believe when its all covered in decals it wont look as intimidating as it does now ...

one day i would love to build a porsche like this without the big wing and more like a road car .. that body is awsome with the bolt on flares .. always loved that

Yeah, normally I don't do my panel lines this dark but when I saw how others had built it with the darker lines it just looked right (especially with the decals.) Thanks Richard, I like that look too. Someday I'll probably do the roadcar version too.
