Thumbs up

Nice love the colour! You're pretty fond of doing 'Euro-Look' conversions and again a job well done!



p.s Does the lady in the back have any sisters?

Not really a big fan of arch's on cars but there is no questions about your awesome work.
I can see why it took 4 months with the amount of mods you carried out.
Full credit to your outstanding skills again.

Nice job, I think those wheels are a bit extreme (being so wide).
I wouldn't wanna go over a bump in that, opps there goes the fender .

next time you make a model, would you be able to show the model without paint or primer (just the plastic and your mods)?
