    Thanks Andxlh. I'll put a link to nitro's tutorial for anyone interested. My approach wasn't identical, but very similar.

    Yes Fretty, there will be some massaging of the body shape. You might be able to see on the first pic with the switch plates and black pup covers there are some pencil lines on the high e side, putting more of a curve in the lower horn cutaway, smoothing the curve on that edge and softening the bottom curve. That'll be a starting point and will see what looks 'right' when I get that far. Mustangs have a symmetrical shape across the bottom like a strat, want to keep some of the angle the kit has. As the title suggests, it has a bit of everything thrown in, we'll see where that ends up.
