Hi all well here are the driver and admirers that will be going with this model.
They are from the Airfix London icon set, so I think very fitting.

Well I got some rivets, nuts and braided hoses today for detailing her also found an old base from the Christie steam fire engine which was too badly broken to be repaired and anyway I've stolen lots of bits off it for other dios, so thought since its cobbled stones it would be good as a base for the Bentley. I've filled sanded and primed the people for the base as well.

Hi KP, BigGrin

Like the work so far. Cool

I remember building the three figures in your build, in my (long ago) young days.

My mum painted the detail after I done the main colours, as she used to work in factory that produced lead soldiers and she used to hand paint them.

Oh the memories.

Not sure how I will remove the stubs from the rivets,

I'm sure I will figure it out before I need them though.
Anyway here is the progress today.

Hi all here is tonight's bit. I have cut off the steering column (not my idea got it from stevieo) and replaced it with part of my extending mirror.






and here is more progress on the rest












I understand these car bodys were covered with cloth and am thinking of covering it with paper and painting that, do you think that would give a clothe effect finish.
