New WIP custom Hotwheels Helang Evo X 2nd project

After the long delay as i was very busy clearing some back logged custom and working long hours in office (to the extend of working during public holidays ) finally the 2nd project helang finally started.

as there are more demands for the special police car custom, the numbers are now reaching 13 evo casting presently and added three more R34 skylines to cope with the demand.

i hope that those respective members and friends had to be patience as these custom periods are taking more times to finish as they are custom and assembled individually to maintained high quality finish.
many apology should be any delay prior to this.

here is my WIP pictures below;
