Hi Scottie
Nice paint job. Gentle with the airbrush has given nice tones and allowed the preshade to show.
Jim

Thanks Jim but it is more by luck than judgement I am struggling with me airbrush at the moment it keeps spitting when I first turn on the air.

Thanks mate hopefully it has given me a good base to work on.

Before I post some progress pictures, may I take this opportunity to wish you all and those dear to you a very Merry Christmas and many thanks for the support you have given me on this great forum.

I have started the detailing work and applied the first filter to the bodywork which you can just make out.

I have had a great catch up Scottie. This is certainly turning into a Scottie classic. Wonderful work as always. Look forward to seeing some more over the Christmas holidays

Hi Steve, Thanks mate for the continuing support and the kind words.

Rick, Thanks mate I thought it needed a splash of colour

 

[scottie3158]

This will probably be the last update before Christmas, what a relief I hear you shout. I am continuing to add the details trying to achieve some tonal variation between the cans etc. I have also added a bit of chipping to the body work but I didn't want to much. Let me know if it needs more or if it is to much already.

Please ignore the finger print this has now gone.

An unexpected chance to get to the bench this morning, so have had a chance to add some more clutter. Net will be to add the little touches and weather the chassis.

have a great Christmas one and all. My thoughts are with Peter and hoping it is good news.

Its all a bit shiny at the moment but the dull coat later will fix that.

You have a way with weathering. Very convincing stuff.
