It appears fools seldom differ. lol
As everyone seems to want to remove the windows .I've tweaked the windscreen so its easier to remove (although the windscreen tab is roughly 2mm thick as it'll help with moulding continuity.)So Doug can have his raised windscreen.

Blackwolf,
 I'm glad you like the figure.

Jon,
I thought you might want to through some paint at it.Have a word with Simon there's a Mr&Mrs civillian motorcycle combo thats been sat in a mould. Since the Police combo .(He keeps forgetting to release it. ;D).
Right finished the tweaking. You can now cut out the majority of the windows or leave them in. With out it looking odd.
So what started as just a musing will be dropped off with Simon at Partizan to be cast after the show.
Mark.

Far be it from me to be picky about such excellent work, but on that last picture, the view from the front, it looks like the bonnet ridge has a curve in it and isn't centered on the windscreen? Optical illusion?

I received the first casting in this mornings post(technically this afternoon but thats the postal service these days).
I took on board as many of your suggestions as practicable and this is pretty much the end result ( until I've managed to throw some paint at it.)
