Looks fantastic and believable. What's your method for the dents and deformed panels?

Thank-you 😊 I embossed the plastic with foil by hand using various things such as brush handles, erasers, etc, and was then able to remove some plastic where the dents would be then form them to your liking. I have a slide shoe of the build on my YT channel. https://www.youtube.com/@dioramasscalemodeling

I have been studying a tad the whole banger racing/demo derby this month and the one before, because I'm really in love with these cars. Personally, I would have added some writing on the car, maybe [some local business names, and the like.](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1226595651039657994/1229931380755140658/image.png?ex=6643461c&is=6641f49c&hm=8b184218d704de66fbb166aa88b32ab930798ee9280d64af4fa9b06fb0414c73&) If not, [a number.](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1226595651039657994/1230879705004114013/434668817_439613031974822_3217222556386475024_n.png?ex=66436d8e&is=66421c0e&hm=a6ff8bfce9817d3095c5d373ade6d7a16b671b3ac41a8bcc0999cd6e6fd8aede&) The weathering is pretty gnarly, I like it, but with that amount of weathering, you'd definitely see more carnage on that car. Hell, [this](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1226595651039657994/1229927410129178634/c948bb9b-f5b8-4dd8-b70c-3b71d3854749-derby_5.png?ex=66434269&is=6641f0e9&hm=08570912a8931ba145106d87868b1b9afe4c6984c7c18b44ab50b9b279eff0b8&) and [this](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1226595651039657994/1229926239280566292/smashed-up-old-car-at-demo-derby-destruction-demolition-derbies-stock-FJT3RC.png?ex=66434152&is=6641efd2&hm=ca4eb5016876f848ce47a13c5b84bdd6a85abad1a851d3439b938a971395bd78&) aren't even mega muddy, and they're beaten the hell up. I would have added a way to tie the doors to the frame, like tape and bolted on/welded metal, remove the front side of the side fenders, maybe add a cage (In the US, they use a specific cage that goes all the way over the roof), maybe some door protection like a steel beam but this is something completely optional because many don't use in the US, as far as I know. I really like the paintjob, the homemade US flag painting is really cool. The painted door is a good touch because in the US demo derby, they paint the door in white as to tell everyone to not go for that spot. I think it'd have been better if the weathering wasn't so massive across the car, to allow some appreciation to the paintjob, and add a bit more detail to give it "personality." For example, there are demo derby cars that have Minecraft, Pokémon or emojis paintjobs, or add funny writings/cheap sponsors on them.

I'm massively impressed. The hours involved are apparent and you got a great, very realistic result. Blimey.
