simonr Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 After being some time living in LAZYTOWN, I'm finally back to finish this project. There's has been a lot of work on it after my last time post, so, there will be more updates soon. Last time I ddi all the paint work on just the body, here you guys can see all the parts that I have to paint on this 200+ Fujimi kit parts. These doesn't cover the parts that will make the engine. The bumpers has a chorme trim, but over it, it wears a rubber moulding that I though to paint flat or semi-flat black, but, instead, I place a piece of the Pactra tape. I comes in several lenghts and it give th part the correct look. Some thing that I would like to correct for some time on my models are those out of scale license plates that in real life will be around a whole inch, could you guys imagine an inch width license plate? Instead use the one that came with the kit, I used a real thinn plastic sheet of evergreen where I placed the decals. A tiny bolt head completed the bumper and license plate assembling. Like the bumper guards you guys saw in over the bumpers, some other parts received the Alclad II blessing. Here can be seing the mirrors and the tail lights bases. Thanks a lot to Armando from Dragon Models USA who provided me with the replacement parts. The kit didn't came with those tail light bases and I messed up the license plates and the decals trying to dry'em with a hair drier. I mixed some Badger flat black acrylic paint and a Gunze Sangyo 01 black fine tip marker in order to replicate the trim that goes under the rear signal lights and the side mirrors. Here are the results. to be continued! Simón P.Rivera Torres Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simonr Posted June 12, 2008 Author Share Posted June 12, 2008 No!, this are not some underexposure shoots, if not, it's that I like the look of the gloss of the car in the dark at my modeling room. It can be seen better that in the perfect lighting setting. The same shots with unaltered room light. I will add soon the front suspension and interior section. I hope you guys like this pictures. See you then! Simón Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cotto Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Very nice work on a complicated model with that many parts. What clear did you use? Are you going to buff it a bit more? It still looks a little dull. Other than that, amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonr Posted June 13, 2008 Author Share Posted June 13, 2008 (edited) I used the Auto Clear from Finisher's. About the dulling look, I think it could be the light setup, because, as you can see in the modeling room pictures, it looks real glossy, and in person it's more than that. Oh yes, I'm convinced, because after checked out these pictures of a prior post, the model has a great gloss. Next step I will show the chassis and interior build up. The model it's more advanced than what you guys see here. Simón P. Rivera Torres Very nice work on a complicated model with that many parts. What clear did you use?
