Fujimi Honda Civic EK9 Curbside

Hi all, 

So the 1966 Chevy Nova project has been put on hold till I can get to a shop to get more body paint (lesson learnt with the EK9 project, more on that in just a bit). So I decided to take the Fujimi EK9 kit for a quick build into a Spoon Civic look, it's not quite finished yet but made so many mistakes on the way too. 

Problems and Bad stuff:

- Only had one small can of yellow body paint and the body could have done with another 1-2 wet coat before I sealed it with clear

- I then attempted to mask and paint the black accents on the window trims on the clear plastic and turns out using painters masking tape instead of something like Tamiya tape, I had runs and leaks so had to wash that off and not as clean windows

- Just general small bits of paint blemishes on the body, you'll see

Anyway, after all that I am still quite happy how it's turned out given what happened lol. 

After the final coat of clear and polished using Novas 1 and 2
