Very nice job, very clean work. I have the navy blue version of the same kit and have looked in the box a few times, wondering how it could look when built.
I will study your wip and hope I can make a good job when I do mine.
Regards, Steve.

Very clean work!
old Heller kits have bad castings and are a little less detailed than recent japanese kits, but you did an awesome work here and nothing of the above mentioned is noticeable...
Congratulations!!

I can't believe it is a heller kit!
A Very Clean Bulit!It seems that you spent lots of time on that sexy 'big cat'.

Here we rarely see heller kits, and have no idea how they look like, after seeing your work I thought, well, it was about tamiya standard~:icon16: What a beauty you've made! Reading your WIP has made me more convinced, amazingly clean and neat! Also brilliant modifications and detail works thoroughly!

Very nice work, indeed. It is a real treat for the rest of us modelers who won't undertake projects like this. Thanks.

My goodness. What an amazing model you have made from such a humble Heller kit that most modellers would have passed. Reminds me of Alex Kustov's Ferrari Lusso, who made an amazing model from a unpromising kit. It helps that you build a series one Jaguar E Type Coupe. Gorgeous.

That car didn't run at Le Mans with a rear bumper, otherwise, exceptionally good work.

Extremely clean built, I love it !
Nearly impossible to recognize a Heller kit, modification and improvement are really noticeable.
Well done Vladimir !

fantastic finish.
Looks like I've now got a good set of kit references for when it comes for me to tackle my 1/24 Jaguar XKE kits.
