Hi George,

Your build is marvelous. It is amazing that so much detail can be added to so small a model.

Hope your hand has a speedy recovery.

After some time, I came back to my bench and finish the tipo 33/3.

Firstly, the paint job completed and then, the final details added. I didn't glue the side body parts, so my customer can remove all the body panels to see all the details. This makes the fitting, especially in the rear hood, far from perfect. But it is a decision which must follow, so I leave these part unglued.

Here some photos from the final stages...
