I have been working on this for a while. It needs a set of wipers and some decals but is otherwise done.
The shell is taken from the Tomy kit. You might notice the different proportions to the Revell body which I have and really like in spite of its shortcomings.

That is sweet! What do you use for your "door lines", etc? I usually use a fine tip Sharpie but they tend to look heavy handed, depending on the body color.

Which body did you use for the mold? Looks pretty good from here!

Thanks for the kind word chaps. The body was taken from a "Tomy" kitset. The shut lines were a bit lumpy so the fine fibre tip pen I used ended up fairly mangled by the end of the job.
