landman Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 The next one will be this. I thought It would look good in blue. Took out a few more colors but the blue keeps coming back. I will do the paint first as it will allow me do do the rest between the repaints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randyc Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Any of the "pearly" colors. Solid should only be red. LOL. I did the Fujimi Enthusiast recently. Was a fun build mostly. Can't wait to see this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gramps46 Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 I vote for the dark blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89AKurt Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 I favor the lighter blues. Don't do brown, or dark red! My two cents. It's funny to see that pearl light green, I just did close to that using nail 'polish'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

landman Posted June 25, 2019 Author Share Posted June 25, 2019 Thank you Randy. Interior is now finished. I may repaint the steering wheel, it is too yellow. Also the body is slightly warped. Perhaps careful clamping when I glue it on will cure it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randyc Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Good luck with the warp. Maybe a bath in hot water too and you can twist it back a little before attaching? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I'm late to the party with my reply, but when I built mine, I went ahead and installed the windsheild before foiling it to avoid this sort of thing - I know how I can break things and it seemed safest way to do it.
