I can see what your trying to achieve and that you've thought about what you want to do but you need to start at the bottom and work your way up the ladder as you build your skills.
I've started with my Focus WIP which had its own thread on here, all i've done so far is stripped the paint back and subtly modified a few bits and pieces, eventually as my list of skills mount up I can keep evolving it until I reach where I want to be with it. I'm at the stage where i've done the metalwork and am about to order some Milliput so I can start the next stage.
As said, take your time with your project, slowly and surely......remember the saying run before you walk?
At the end of the day the bm was my first attempt at modding a 1/18 scale model and im happy with how it turned out, and i am redoig it in the future, as for the rest of my projects im spending more time on them soon as i have to redecorate the bedromm for the mrs and money is tight at the moment, but i can assure you that my skills are at they're best as i have done this sort of thing before on 1/24 scale models, which i no longer have as i sold all 1,200 of them off so i could have the engine rebuilt in my car and so i could start collecting 1/18 scale models and start modifying them instead. my escort im not doing as much to that as i am just fitting a cossie engine changing the wheels, the exhaust, adding spoilers and a sound system to that, my viper im extending the priginal bumpers and skirts and adding the viper gts ducktail spoiler, and as for the lambo' im just giving that a respray.
