Thanks Guys.

still to do the Antenna wiring, which I will deal with on the weekend, in the mean time some semi-finished overall shots.....

Andy the chipping is done on the Matt Paint with a Silver Pencil, this way if I'm not happy I can rub it off and redo it, plus its a very controlled way to do it right, i usually also do some Silver paint chipping in some of the areas as well to give 2 tones of the Silver a bright and dull in the various areas...
