Wow!!

Can I ask which colour you used for the chassis? Looks really good with an excellent smooth finish...

polux it all ready came chrome when you by the model kit of your choosing. I broke all rules of modeling like my brother said pete quote " Jim do what I do scrap the official colour scheme and do whatever takes your fancy." So I did.

Oh my god! I’ve been fascinated by the normal chrome on the kit....
Maybe it’s time to leave the modelling and start new activities lol
