You're so kind guys, I'd buy you all a beer if it was possible ! The interior was built and painted, weathered and some parts metallised. I gave myself a break by keeping the background simple. The extra (painted) detail can barely be seen and it will be even less visible after adding the transparent part in the front part. I also won a couple of hours by making things simpler. If I had found a good background decal for it I would have done the effort. This is a crappy pic of the jukebox today : Sorry buddies, no needles were installed, you'll have to imagine the music.

Guy
That Juke Box looks so real quarters are not needed just imagination and as I remember that model played on a nickle.

Thanks fella modellers ! Today I decided to add the curtain in the background of the juke box, I also added a bit of blue in it, and I kept this very simple, no time wasted on hidden painted details ! The front panel was temporarily attached with Blu Tack. The curved panel was glued on... Now I can start the ornaments and other eye torturing stuff.... Best regards ! AG.

Thanks best mateys ! I've started the detailing of the body, six strips were added, they will be painted silver later on. The curved front is almost complete now, a few more fine tubes need to be glued on... Best regards ! AG.

Thanks buddies, you keep me going ! This small thing is becoming quite time consuming and it feels good to feel the MSCF (Modelers Social Club Force) ! This is what I did recently : - caught a gorilla in the Ardennes, - shaved his left hand palm, - airbrushed his big left hand with a flesh color to make it look more like a human hand, only bigger, - placed the jukebox in the humanized gorilla hand to make the thing look even smaller, - took this pic : No gorilla was abused, I even used special shaving cream : Still a lot to do... Best regards ! AG.

Nah, I think AG won't be traumatized... remember European ladies don't shave their legs and armpits if I am correct.
