Looks very nice !

Well done. I'm just getting to the point of putting the body on the chassis of mine. It seems to be going together ok did you find any difficulties with the final assembly?

I always have difficulties at the end of the MFH assembly !
Not everything can be planned in advance during dry fitting... Here, watch out for the gap between the pit and the front panel. Some modelers had a bigger gap than mine.... ;)

A wonderful car, perfectly built.I love that Aston Martin and built a 1:12 scale model 20 years ago from a simple resin kit from the brand retrotoys. The wire wheels are a self construction and not included in the kit. This model is miles away from the nice MFH kit and your car.
Condratulations!!!
Here some photos from my retrtoys car:

Such a lovely and legendary car! I do get your point of finishing it in semi gloss, it’s a matter of taste basically.
Yours is probably based on the actual raced car. A high gloss finish would be replicate a more restored car (or the one I saw last weekend at the Revival :) )
Nevertheless just a spot on and cracking model!!
