      John mate, great advice I went out and changed my lamp bulbs to LED ones, makes such a massive difference, have a look at these photos, they seem much better, and not as dark as the previous ones.

      Thanks Ian and Monica


      Well heres the next update, almost complete now, did alot of work today. 


      Today was my first time using Bare Metal Foil... I had many issues but in the end achieved what I set out to do. 


      So this took me around all day to do. 








      Here is a look at the interior almost complete








      Here is the interior complete


      Here are the pics in my new scratch built photo booth and LED lamps (the advice which I got from John) - so Thanks again mate











      The body has tyre fenders (I think thats what there called) added to it, in black to give it a cool look one fender is still not put on at this stage




















      The side windows arent glued in properly yet so they have been removed for these pictures

















      I still think the lighting in the pics is a bit off, might try mixing yellow and white light to get a better overall picture. 


      Well its time for me to get some ZZZZ's


      I hope you all enjoyed the build update
