So here is it, would have liked a real scanner for it but too late now

Bonnet doesnt sit flush due to the fan shroud attached to the radiator, didn't realise until I had the body on and its a pain removing and refitting it so its staying as it is

Haven't polished the body either as the paint went on nice so no need I dont think?

Nice job, wouldn't have noticed the bonnet if you hadn't pointed it out.

Have you left the roof panels clear for a reason?

Yes.... Plucking up courage to hit them with the Tamiya Smoke... Not had very good results with it so far, was wondering what else I could use instead

Any ideas?

Looks good to me.
Know what you mean about Tamiya smoke, it's a bit hit or miss.
Comes off with isopropyl if you mess up though

Hi Ash,

It look's good, why don't you leave the roof panels clear, makes it a little easier to see the interior, or do the panels lift out...

Nice job ash. I also find the smoke difficult to do smoothly so I now simply use a little strip of developed film to tint my windows.

Very cool model, Ash. I'd display it with the tops off - it shows much better.
