Let me just start by saying, it looks great. You're really putting a huge amount of effort into this and it's paying off.
I don't know if it's just me, but the buldge on the far fender/arch looks a lot bigger then on the near one.
The detail is excellent! The carbon looks ace.
Another thing I noticed though is that something looks a little odd with the front wheel. I don't know if it's too bright or what, but anyway none of what I just said had anything to do with the refs :P

So regarding those, the reflections on the car look great, but the reflection of the car on the floor looks like it's being squished at the nose if that makes sense.

Anyway, GREAT work so far! I can't wait to see more of this!

Thanks for the big comment Hayseed :P i agree the front wheel is a bit too bright, and will be sorted as i work my way backwards on the car, but the far bulge is definitely the same size as the other one, i spent aaaages making sure they were even xD
And you're right about the undercar ref nose being squashed, but you wont notice it when i blur it :)

Right bit of an update again, been working on the front refs as they were still the same as from when it was in an outdoor bg. Realised the bonnet refs will need redoing, they make sod all sense really :P
Also made the splitter thicker like Glacius suggested months ago, but it obviously needs work :)

Anyway, full res image of the front for you now :)

Splitters need some detail :P Just kidding, I'm sure you are aware of that.
The new reflections look good I think. And it looks a lot better now that you've fixed the far headlight. It's coming along nicely!

Signature removed because it's too large. Read the rules about signature sizes.
Cheers for the great comments again guys :) and even a marriage proposal!
You dont get that everyday xD
Anyway, update time again. I said before I didnt really like the hood/bonnet refs so I thought that I may as well redo them. There are around 18 layers of brushing just for this hood so far, and it's not entirely finished yet, but I thought I'd show that I was making some (slow) progress on it :)
Right, picture time.

Thoughts as always :)

It's looking good so far! I can't really see any issues with it. Don't really have much to say since you're still working on it. Anything I say you might already be changing :P Anyway, keep at it! It's coming along nicely

Update time again (before I get GT5 and it takes over all of my spare time :P)

Been trying to sort the front out so it wasnt blue, and also make the carbon pattern less visible, but I'd somehow flattened the layers so i've had to brush the entire thing again.
Decided to create a slightly more interesting light as well (dont worry, it will get carried over to the other side too eventually). All brush, including the rivets around the headlight cover and the lights themselves.
Anyway, enough chatter, heres the picture.

Hope you enjoy it and let me know if you see anything wrong with the freshly brushed stuff :)

Ahhh! God damn thats looking great!

3 and a half months since the last one, here comes another update.
Been far too busy to chop since getting a new job as a gunsmith (it sounds much cooler than it actually is) but I've been wanting to get this thing on its way to finally being finished. Thankfully I've got 5 days off now as my boss is in Baltimore, so i've got myself some time to chop.

So in this update i seem to have done the opposite of getting it finished, changing a lot of stuff around just to make it a little more extreme than it was before, rather than doing refs etc. I've changed the upper side of the car, the rear side window vent has been changed and the most noticeable change is the whopping great spoiler. Though all that's mainly just to get myself back into chopping again as i was feeling a little rusty xD

Anyway, here it is, and its the first full view for a while.
I hope you like it :D
