I suppose there's no cat figgie in this scale.🤔 Funnily enough 1\24 is the scale a lot of dolls house accessories are, there's cats, dogs, rabbits...even gold fish in bowls

The Chassis was painted along with the front fenders in Zero paints BRG, when i applied the gloss coat all was fine.......but after an hour or so both fenders crazed??........the chassis was fine tho, both were primed and painted together so i havn`t a clue what happened there. Funny thing is.....i chucked it in a box and put it in the loft, a couple of years later i come across it and the fenders are now feckin` perfect...WTF , havn`t got a clue what went on in that loft....maybe the cold or the dark or even paint mending fairies had a hand in it!!...who know`s. That`s why it`s still alive and on my `to finish` list

Very nice indeed, I like the very subtle weathering you've added.

Thanks Robbo. I was actually thinking of doing down the dust so it looks like the butler has just washed it.
But then again it is a racing car.

Thanks guys.
As for weathering; I saw a shiny model on the internet. It looked good but not realistic. Back in the day I don’t think they had car wax, let alone used it, so that was my rationale!!!!
