Well that is one good thing about summer coming to an end, many of us find our way back to the modeling desk. Very convincing looking work you have.

Evening all. Its been a busy few months. Ive been doing a spot of turning, ive turned the rear suspension parts, first part of the drive shaft / universal joint the bit that comes out of the gear box, the rest ill use stock parts, and the water tank cap as the kit doesn't supply one?! I re-made the middle of the steering wheel from 0.5mm alu as I didn't like the way it would look using the photo-etched part glued onto the plastic middle, to thick. I've also been making the brake lines using 0.5mm dia wire and some stretched black heat shrink tube. Its almost been a year now so maybe finished this year ??!!

I see you also corrected the water tank shape, the Tamiya version is a square box. Very good detail.
