Great color! It is always faszinating, how those colors work after clear cote.

Sweet paintjob

David Orr
Thanks everyone. Christian, it is definitely a revelation when you put the clear coat onto the colour shift paint. This one has the same colour shift as the Nissan Skyline in my albums, but that one was on a gloss black base. It's good fun experimenting with different base colours to see how the effect shows up.

You've made a terrific model, David, the paint finish is perfect, but, come on, one of the most beautiful cars ever built? Just take a look at Jaguar's back catalogue - C Type, D Type, E Type, XK 120, 140, 150, Mk1, Mk2, Mk10, to name just a few, all more beautiful than this British Leyland monster. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I guess.

George, I did say "one" of the most beautiful, all of the other Jags being right up there with it. My favourite would probably be the XJ13. The XJ220 is not a British Leyland monster. It was built while Ford owned Jaguar, and it was built by TWR anyway. I'd rate it's looks as far superior to any other supercar of the day, and probably any supercar of any generation.

Andrew Wylie
Thanks for the comments, greatly appreciated. 🙂

David Orr
Lovely job. You chose a great colour for it. Mind you, an XJ220 would look good in just about any colour.

Chris Greathouse
That finish is AMAZING!

A second note, your mirror plate, booth, and lights make some awesome pictures!

Patrick Hagelstein
True....

Tim Heimer
Awesome work! Good looking piece!

Beautiful job and a stunning colour. What paint did you use? I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who put the driver's side mirror on the door instead of on the wing. I did it accidentally, but I like it that way much better. It looks odd with one on the wing and the other one on the door.
