1961 Jaguar 'E'

I've mentioned this elsewhere, but I thought I'd post some photos.

This was a model that I was very 'iffy' about, drafted, not computer generated, so I expected fit issues, especially on the curvy edges. I had to do a major cleanup on the textures (I wish I'd spent some time on the windshield). I also was looking at fixing all the bare white on the inside doors.

Once I was reasonably pleased with the textures and color, I looked at photos of real Jag's and found one with similar colors, so I sampled and replaced.











I see I need to go back and do some touch ups, but overall, it came out better than I expected

Great job VK. I love the E Type, especially in British Racing Green. A true classic.
