I'm not loving the large gap in the hood. I know it could be modified but I'm not the one. I might try to get fancy with the engine bay, we'll see.

Ok, so... I want to add some detail. Starting with plug wires and battery cables. Everything I have seems way out of scale.

Rookie mistake. 
I neglected to re-prime after sanding down a drip.

Trying to give the engine bay some character is not going well.
The wash was a wash.

Be careful of Hasagawa Mirror Finish tape. Way stickier than BMF.

Am I wrong about the wire size?

I want a do-over. I'm not happy with the body finish. It'll be my first trip to the purple pond.

Isn't she adorable?
- White can be a tough color to work with.
- This kit is tiny.
- Swapped out for a 3D printed steering wheel.
- I chose not to use any panel liner. Doors and boot could use more definition.
- Used the kit chrome. Tamiya X-11 on the wind screen, Hasagawa tape on the body. They blend ok.
- A need a better clear orange paint.
- I love the metal badges. They're so delicate. They are adhesive backed.
- Nothing added to the engine this time.
