Project Wrap Up: Jaguar XJ-S Hot Wheels Restoration

For where my skill level is right now, I'm pretty happy with it. Paintwork could be a bit smoother, and the wheels don't even sit on the ground. But that's ok. Once I've had some practice, I'll probably go back in and add some detail painting in. But she's good for now!
