Hi Alex, Maybe it's not too late to blend the filler panel for the scoop opening. The actual cars were smooth a blended out filler pieces.
Good luck with your build. I don't know how you do things so fast!!!

I have been working this one, just not posting
Overall parts
Quick mockup here, everything fits well

Fittings, braided hide and machines components in
More focus on engine
New belt material, fits well, glues well and has pattern
Oh and the decals are several shades darker than the TS paint, so source another paint!!!!!!!!!!

Gorgeous Alex, just mind blowingly gorgeous!! I seriously do hope we get to see some of your works at the upcoming shows near Houston.
And so you touch this limit, something happens and you suddenly can go a little bit further. With your mind power, your determination, your instinct, and the experience as well, you can fly very high.
