Wasn't sure what the area was in the original scale. Is it on a standard 6X4 table? If so then the larger scale cars would need a lot more room.......or not?

The 80's vibe was what I was going for, but I can understand that they're not to everyone's liking. I had a look at a few other windscreen effects and they all looked like they were hard to achieve i.e. wet blending or several progressive shades.

I wouldn't have chosen a Lambo as one to convert, but it was part of the sale so he got done as well.
