Hello,
It seems that the hosting image site that i used before disappeared, then I’m trying another one before to put back the missing images.
Here are some pictures before painting, I did an assembly, of course without to glue, then it was a bit difficult to put much part as I can and all of them to the right place
Cheers

Wonderful update! So glad this is still moving forward. It's such a good looking car. I picked up the S27 decal sheet, so I will be having a go at this same project (1990, though) some day.

Re: JS33 Monaco 1989 1/20
Hello,
I decided to clean the dust over this project, so here are some new pictures:
Compare the pictures of the real car and what I did, I thought that was better to modify all the rear area.
then I prepared the parts for painting.
I still have to do a lot of improvement with Zero Paint vanish
so, after a big polishing phase, I tart to be a bit happier with the result. then I notice that the shadow of the log GITANES was inverted
, no way to modify this now it will stay like that
Time to star to assembly the parts
Cheers
