Fantastic detail Andy. Just keeps on getting better and better with each update.

[Stefee]

Superb and a great amount of detail provided. Surprised it had power steering.

This does look a nice kit and a lovely job your making of it.

[Jim R]

That engine and interior is looking superb. The detail is stunning.

[Andy T]

Thanks again for the great comments.

The kit is the real star here, I'm just adding paint and glue :smiling3:

Wow! I love all the detail, it's so cool, well done indeed!

[HAWKERHUNTER]

Such incredible detail Andy and you have done a great job in assembling.

Careful Andy, car and bike kits are addictive. I always thought of myself as a confirmed AFV builder, but I don't think I've touched one in almost two years.

I started a Miura years ago but stumbled when I got to the fine detailing bits and it kinda put me off.

I think my skills have improved a bit since then so may well try another after enjoying this so much.

Where the 'really' like button?

The glazing is now fitted. It needs a good clean but I'll wait until the glue has firmed up fully





The rear side windows were fun, with an etch grill and a transparent air scoop. The kit also supplies some sub-millimetre etch fixings for around the edge but that isn't going to happen lol. I'll give them a blob of silver paint instead, same for the other windows.



I've also finished the front bumper & light pod:



And I've decided not to add any droop to the suspension. If I ever want to display it on the ground it would look weird, so I've been cleaning up all of the substantial mould lines ready for a splash of paint. The hub & disc assembly has a poly cap inside for attaching the wheels:

Can't get over the super details in this kit, can see where the cost is more justified.

[Mr Bowcat]

Belkits stuff is really nice, if not a little spendy. Still, you get what you pay for.

Just caught up Andy, that is looking sweet.
