Just a few more progress shots.
I've now got the front and sides close to finished.
I ran out of flake so the back of the body is still bare and I'm now waiting on more to arrive in the post.

Yeah I just laid down a coat of clear and once it was a bit tacky I sprinkled the flake on. Then just went over it with more clear.....a lot more clear. In hindsight I'd use .015 or.008 sized flake...

So after not having much time to work on this build for a while I finally got around to doing few things this weekend.
I started by sanding out the pick up pockets as they were just a bit too tight...
Just recieved the kit and everything was packaged really well, I decided to do a dry run build.
The first thing I noticed was a couple of small gaps in the neck pocket.
Decided to start by sealing...

Just got the kit today and did a mock build.
There's a few issues that I'll have to fix.
The neck pick up cavity is a few millimetres small and there's some small gaps...
