    One of the most cleanly executed Classics Jazz customs I've seen! Flawless sculpting and paintwork!

    Question: Are you going to paint the front lip red? Also, nice decal look BUT I think he could use some more decals on his sides somewhere in car mode. Great work man!

    Hey thanks a lot guys, glad hes getting a lot of love =-)

    Im not doing the front lip red, as that was more a Porsche 935 thing, and the dreamwave 997 was more street car from my interpretation, I think. So will keep it clean in that regard.

    I *was* thinking of micro sized porsche logo on the side behind the front wheel, but Im not sure.

    The fellow who asked me to make this wanted it clean, and while Im not sure if he is buying it as of yet, Im keeping it basic for now, and can add things later.

    I guess I should stop being slack and take less grainy pics now, as I have cleared coated in Testors gloss so he's basically finished!

    Again, I appreciate all the inspiring feedback!
    Sam

    He looks sweet! I would have prefered no logo and just extend the stripe a little but he still looks great.

    heh, thanks fellas. =-)

    When I make stuff for people from scratch I keep the deal open ended, mostly because I take so long to make stuff, so sometimes situations change ;-) If he wasn't able to I would just pop it on ebay so its not a problem as such, or sometimes I just get asked =-)

    thanks again for all the support!

    lol, it'll be up in about 4 hours I think, its scheduled to start at same time as another item i have, so just click my sig I think 4 hours time mate, thanks Mr SW ;-)

    I use rubber tyres and rims from slot cars actually, just fiddly trying to make em fit on some of the larger classics rims, not so bad on this version though. =

    The head is really nice. Only the legs are the only issue to me. I guess it's just because the feet look like they're not out. But the weapons, head, and even a fully redesigned front, with the bug lights really look awesome.
