Truly amazing. All of the open panels and extra details on this are stunning. I love it. Great color combo and weathering too. Just a fantastic build from the ground up.

Stunning...all the hard work placed into this build shows, from the openings, to the painting/weathering, and to the base and overall finish. Beautiful.

A true modern art masterpiece there Paddy. Aside from the paint and weathering work this one really shines in the detailing. With all the panels that you've got opened up and plenty of eye candy underneath them it just makes the whole thing so enjoyable to look at. Great build and again on the photography of it which seems to bring it all to life.
With the results of this build I can surely look forward to seeing what's next from you.

Just before you invited me to join here i had finished a Mustang along the lines of this build IE: and Eduard 1/48 with detail kit so my plan is to make a base of some sort for it.... OK so it has a base but it needs some grass or something :-)

Heya paddy, you outta post a thread on that completed Bentley Blower that you just finished not too long ago. Until this build, I only thought you built autos.....man I was pleasantly surprised when you built this Wildcat.
