 Subject:  Re: [Chapter] Current Status - Front end close upList thread.  
  
 Date:  Oct 30, 2006
 From:  Paul A. Owen 
Here's the front end, bonnet and front fenders.

Note the bonnet has been cut from the front part and (for the photo) placed back in position. The effect I was trying to simulate here is to get a slightly inconsistent gap between the bonnet and body. Just look at your own car and you'll see what I mean by this.

The fenders here have been thinned out from below and dented up a little. See how the large dent on the edge looks like a dent rather than melted or cut in?

Just visible inside the engine compartment is the fule tank. This is from the CMK engine kit.
