This has been a long hard road, with mishaps here and there, but it is paying off in a good way.

Ok here is a little something different for the M3..... tires with snow chains. here they are painted I took real chain...40 link per inch and added these to the tires. Man that was a PIA to do...... now I am working on a winter set for the M8/M20

Impressive work on those tires, nothing replicates the look of chains like real chains! I can see how it would be PITA to get them crafted and in place on the masters prior to casting but you would never know it from the end result.

I am so relieved that they turned out as well as they did. I just hope that someone will buy a few. "hint hint hint"

If I was in the market for 1/72 snow-chain wheels, these would be at the top of my list for sure!

Nicely done Ken! OTW has a wide audience for 1/72 scale stuff so should get you some nice exposure for all your hard work.
