Thanks fellas

Now an update, made the side angles more exteme as the sides were far to flat, and added a first draft tailgate. I added stand in lights, which in trun highlighted an issue with the rear end, as it tapers in far too much now, so that needs addressing next.

Cheers!

front/rear ends seems to be bit flat looking also (from top view).

Cool, that's a handy ref image you posted there.

And yes, you are right, they are totally flat, that'll be next on my list then!

Cheers!

Just a bit of an update, adjusted the mian shape some, and made it not flat at the front and back... and worked on the opening side rear quarter panels.

Got some proxy wheels in to.

Cheers!

Hot stuff man! My dad had a 3.0 Vi think V8 anyway) one of these when i was born up until i was like 5 (in PURPLE with illuminous green vinyl smileys lmao).

I don't know if you have ever driven a Capri but one insane thing about them is that the hood actually obstructs a scary amount of your view when driving, that got past quality control ok then? lol!

A truely iconic car, and a true challenge to model!

You are doing great, be sure not to let this thread die
