Apologies all you guys.

I didn't intend to hijack this thread - my pics were just to show I've made 2 variants.

It's a great little kit with loads of potential.

High everyone managed to get the BRG on don't worry Roy about the confusion it's nice to have a comparison and a standard to aim for I was going to give this spray job a full 24hrs before I get my grubby paws on it but should I apply lacquer before I handle it. Thanks for looking/advice and comments cheers John

That's turned out really good John! The colour looks ace.

Interesting colour, I like it, hopefully the rest will be flawless too. Nice work John.

If you want a mega-gloss, use 2K.

You'll have to wait about 2 weeks before you touch it though.

Looks lovely so far - almost the identical colour to my XF.

Box of bits painted to be fixed when body shell is finished cannot find any pics of the floor pan on the web so will just make up my own colours View attachment 91231

Not my usual thing Tone but I have to admit I'm really enjoying this kit and I am already looking for another 1/32 airfix car of this standard as it been a pleasure to put together unlike the older previous car kits from airfix I've attempted so I highly recommend this one in particular

I would say avoid anything pre 2K then lol ('starter kit')

Some are better than other's, but their newer car stuff seems pretty good, if a little small (1/24 builder lol)

Small update progress is slow by my own standards as it seems with these little suckers that you are always waiting for paint to dry/cure but I've selected a base(picture frame) which will be kept simple grass tarmac and a rumble strip more later................. Thanks for looking in cheers John View attachment 91535

That's looking excellent John! The white is a great contrast to the BRG - the added mesh is a lovely touch!

Cheers Patrick I went with white but I did consider silver maybe next time if I find another car boot bargain
