Chris,

Using FUD (fine ultra detail) print, the surface is very smooth. I guess one I 
add a coat of paint will see how it will look. Hard to tell the detail, as I 
took the photo with my Blackberry and the fact that the material is printed in 
clear.

Just getting ready to order some brake parts. Hope to get another 4 and run 
them back and forth to the Mainland in groups of 2. Seems like they travelled 
in 4's so I will cut that in half for scale. :)

If you happen to find that article I would love to see it. I assume that will 
be my only thing holding the finished model back.
