Beautiful job Jesper! Well worth the wait for this one. You even got the two colors on the factory mags almost perfect, which is something most people over look. Two thumbs up!

The center should have been darker.

That's a great build you show here.
Nice colors and the engine looks good.
How did you do the chromework?
Like the overall shine of the bodywork.

Hi Jesper. I would say that your build here is AWESOME, but Hermon would have a field day with that, so I will just say that I am very impressed with the quality of your workmanship, but the subject matter needs improvement.
And just in case Hermon isn't watching, super cool work, I love it !!
Cheers, D

Wow, Jesper. Nice work & a clean build! I agree with Hermon, the factory mags are well painted and look good.
You made that 25 year old kit look mighty tasty.
