That's really lovely. Full of character and interest. I look forward to seeing a pic of the completed vehicle.

Up to your usual standard. Are the curved pieces of beading done with filler or by starting with roughly the right shape and sanding it to a smooth curve?

Beading all done with cut and file method and a template. Using a template ensures consistency.

Interesting, must admit I've never thought of using a template. I'll remember that one for the future.
