Keith D Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 I just completed this model. Very new to modeling. I have learned a lot through this kit and will continue to get better. Sorry if it's not as good as a lot of yours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gluebomber Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Looks really good, Keith. I have this kit in my stash. How did it go together? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Hoffman Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Looks pretty doggone good to me. I have another one of Aoshima's car kits that I haven't started. Tell us how it went together please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith D Posted August 31, 2015 Author Share Posted August 31, 2015 Actually went together way better than I thought. The thing that gave me a little trouble was the whole door configuration due to them opening and closing. And the door jamb where the door would latch it real life is a little guessing game on if you should move it up a mm or 2. This may be only me, but those were the troubles I faced. And the door where it closes at the top, I had to take a heat gun to it to bend it in a little so it would sit more flush Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith D Posted August 31, 2015 Author Share Posted August 31, 2015 Overall, it is the most fun kit I have ever had and the most irritating because I was starting to shake up a bottle of paint and didn't realize I didn't screw the cap on well and paint flew all over me and my floor. Wasn't a pretty sight. My wife was pretty upset. But overall everything placed easily and not much holding pieces until glue dries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

o-man Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Looks good to me. Good to see another import modeler on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith D Posted August 31, 2015 Author Share Posted August 31, 2015 Yea...I'm 25 and recently started getting back into this and haven't touched one since I was really young. I ran across the scale modeling channel on YouTube and it made me want to get back into it. But all I see on here is really old cars and cars way before me. So I like to build more recent cars. And maybe a few older muscle cars (70s). But like I stated earlier, this was a really fun build, and EXTREMELY detailed kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacoballardtattoo Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Looks great. You will be able to find things you feel could be better in every model you ever build weather it's your first or number one million. I just got back into things myself and was thinking the same (it may bit be as good as others on here) I found seeing the others had just pushed me to try more. Great start keep it going.

modellingnovice Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Great to see this model kit built in what I think is the best colour for the car! And it is very well put together, hope you had fun putting it together (apart from the mishap with the paint haha)! I have one of these waiting to be built, but I want to develop some skills like using Carbon Fibre decals etc. I would also like to add the C1 models DMC Wing to the car, as I feel it'd complete the look. Great build, keep 'em coming! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamsuperdan Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 I think it turned out great! Never apologize for your skills. I suck, and I'll never apologize for it! If you enjoy it, and you are happy with the end results that is the only thing that matters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
