keenly following your progress here Chris. I'm generally quite accepting of static models. There are however a couple that annoy the hell out of me. Our D4C Packard woody probably most of all. There is so much more to see in there, notably the internal timberwork.

@geoff-jowett I hear 'ya brother!
Yat-Ming did an OK job with the interior, the long, all-wood headliner is replicated but the color is a bit off. As for all the other interior wood, well..... it's simply not there.
I will just paint the green metal brown.
That being said, if this was an "A-level, CMC type" modification, I would, of course, replicate ALL that wood in scale. But this project is NOT at that caliber. Therefore, my B-, C+ effort will suffice. 😑 😫
PS
That's a gorgeous Packard woody!
