Looking nice. So, what's the story behind the small amount of clay on the wheel hubs? If that is what they are called.

As I sit here and look at the superior quality PE work all I can think of is "Damn!" I would love to have the talent/technique that you exhibit. Great work. It is truly amazing how the level of work has evolved from when I started modeling.

This is coming along real nice Jacek. Looking at your skills I can tell the final product is going to be a show stopper

Btw, I must echo what Greg has said about your soldering skills. I cannot see where you soldered the PE parts together. Normally, you can see evidence of the soldering joints but you work is very clean. If possible, can you share your secret of clean work? Thanks!
