Thanks guys for all the comments,

I've almost finished but not easily, I'm gusing it's because of my modifications but this kit is starting to suck, none of the glass fits and the body and the chassis don't fit together, even without my custom parts in place it's not working too well, If any ones built this kit and had the same problems could you possibly tell me, just a little reassurance that its not my fault...............

Anyway, I've painted the body, it took a lot of thin coats (26, no clue why i counted......) then using then gunk that settles at the bottom of the cup that you wash out paint brushes in, i smeared it all over the paint, then air brushed some more light coats, unfortunately it didn't turn out that great,

You can really see it but I masked out a shark face, also some numbers, sorry but today the model is photogenic.....







Here's my best shot showing the paint, still isn't close to real life, but better then above..



And lastly, because I can't figure out the glass, I filled in the areas I had cut out for the glass with some welds, pulling the interior and the body shell together......



Thanks for watching... and I look forward to you're guy's responses...
