Nice green version. I built the Christmas version in red & brown.

Nice colors. Thanks for sharing.

My only comment is that the front end looks really “poofy” with those big fenders.

But it was a fun build

Need to pay attention to the joints

There is also a simple internal frame to be added later

Exclamation Front fenders

The fenders are one piece with some cuts for curvature. Normally, those are 3D curved surfaces that do not lend themselves to paper or any flat surface.

Here they are attached to the engine hood.

For some reason it looks like the fenders have a slight downward slope. Not sure why as I used the markings on the parts

Those are a lot of complex curves Isaac. The fenders do look tilted forward, but it could be the photo too.

The tilt would become more obvious soon

Forward section

Now add the grill and headlights. Both parts did not fit properly and needed trimming.


Also added the internal frame to the cabin


Here it is

Isaac,

It looks better with the grill and headlights added.
