Excellent work! Turned out great!

Is it just me, or does it look like the driver is looking to the co-driver with an expression of ?

LOL!

Haha...didn't notice that till you mentioned it. But it's supposed to be like this as I built it so that the driver is turning right. You have the option of the driving turning left or right or driving straight. And the arms and head are supposed to tilt accordingly. Thanks for all the comments.

Ya, I know, realised it only after I have glued on the windows. Any suggestion to paint the windows without smudging the windows or the other parts? BTW, I have waxed the whole car, including the windows, do you think the paint will stick? TIA

If possible....remove the body and if you can take the windows back out to paint if you want a really need job done.
I never glue my windows in just in case i ever have to remove them.
I use a very strong tape and tape the bottom edges of the windows in place where it will not be seen when built.
i only glue them in if i really have to.

Thanks for the advice, will remember to tape the windows for my future models. Will let my GF try the window trim part without taking anything off, if she succeed, will post some pics. P.S. she got some steady hands, all parts to be paint brush is done by her, basically all the interior
