Super clean and the modifications look great. Kind of reminds me of a sunbeam tiger V8.

Good work!

Cheers,

Rick

Nice job!

Steroids is the right word - its starting to look like a Cobra

I remember how small this kit is which just makes your detailing work even more impressive

Very nice and tasteful modifications. You seem to have the sort of eye to not damage the shape and overall appearance of your model. Great work.

Thank you all for your kind comments!

I don't have a tutorial, but I have photos I took during the construction.

I hope you like them:
