Absolutely marvellous!!! The best customs are those taking something that might look hopeless, and running with that. The enhancements work perfectly, from the clever improvised custom-made windscreen to the realistic wheels and tires, painting the driver figure, and the red paint job! Budgie cars are great, albeit a product of their times and rather spartan, but the castings are magnificent and present a prime oppportunity to create something magnificent!

Idea from a modeler. When you are going to paint red as a final color. Use a white primer. Less coats of red and a better tint. Looks like you had to put too many coats on and you lost detail. Windscreen turned out great, good idea using the pin.

For such an old model, the proportions are very pleasing. I think it's lovely. For a so-called 'cheapo' brand, Budgie did produce some very fine models. The finished result? Sweet as, Rob. Sweet as.
