Well done and a well deserved place.
As you have asked, I would just say that the nice dirty windscreen, complete with the wiped clean bit, are sitting in a very clean frame.....
When I do windscreens like that I fit them and then make them dirty, that way the effect is more erm effective. But never the less a very good build indeed.

Very nicely done Julian, base is some great scratch up work (like the wall).
News papers and maps are excellent additions and stowage is vey authentic looking :thumb2:

High marks from me.......Jim

Thanks Ian, I will keep that in mind on future builds.
