Not quite sure why you are gettin' drilled about the ref photo date. The work is really nice. I love the reflections. Nice colors.

Nah. I'm not going to make it 100% perfect. it still has to look like a drawing, and drawings sometimes do have mistakes. I have a list of people wanting to get cars done so I don't have much time to fix much with the sled :(
