Looks so much better, but you do have to pay extra for the priviledge :)

Not my era but, my goodness, what a difference a bit of black paint makes.

Definately much better, but not enough to make me shell out at the price.  I think I too will wait until the others come down, then paint them myself.  And no, painting them myself isn't modelling, it is fixing something which shouldn't need fixing in the first place!

I presume these are not factory painted, but that Maurice Pearce has got the paintbrush out....  ;D ?

If that's Maurice's work then well done. I really like what he's done with the nameplate - the close up of it looks almost real!!!!!  :smiley-laughing:
