Ok here is the model im doing at the moment.
its the large chev i think its a 1/12th.
I have one allready but i wanted a pair of them, and also wanted to see wether i had improved from the previous one.
Im still not sure if it is going to be an improvement over the original, but i will wait til its finished and see.
ok first i would like to introduce Peter and Craig my 2 tradies.
there work is cool, and they have a sence of humor, but can get lazy.
ok here they are under coating the body

Had to stop them once, they were swinging of the grane, ( think they had been drinking)
but it finally got in, the right way this time.

It has a velour carpet,brownish/gold dash and parcel shelf mats, matching floor mats,and red and light grey interior
We all were very pleased witht he way the Dash came up.
it was our first time using felt for the mat, and getting the chrome just in the middle.

They are up to the painting of the body which will take a while so for now they have the day off.
Its going to be a Incandesent Chrome red, well i hope it turns out that way.
Thanks for reading and taking an interest, i wi finish it when the paint is done.

Nice work, Hey , seeing as Peter and Craig are both Midgets (okay, little people for you politically aware people) do you only pay them Half of award wage? or do you get them 2 for 1 ?

Either way they are doing some nice detail work for you. looksgreat
