Re: Airtrax 1/24 FERRARI 330 GTC

I don't even know if I should continue with this here as it doesn't seem to garner much interest, but here is next update.

Next phase was making sure interior parts fit the body and the chassis. Made the interior piece straight by boiling it in water:

Also bent the front body piece to correct curve:

Fixed the chassis to the body, I started fitting interior elements:

Dashboard is not poured all the way, and had a huge hole in it.*

You think this will be noticeable on the completed model? Really Airtrax?

Or maybe this gap in the back? How can you make a kit where parts don't fit to each other THAT bad?

Filled the gap with some putty:

Before I could fill the dash, decided to fit the firewall - used modified piece from Italeri kit.*

Still lots to do before I can even call this a kit!
