Mattilacken Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 Looks good. I have the same thought, that or the embossing powder 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JollySipper Posted June 26, 2022 Author Share Posted June 26, 2022 Still working on this, guys! The interior is pretty much done....... I dropped the dash, so I had to put it back together........ Also, I've done some detail painting on the bumpers....... I use these paint pens for a lot of stuff, they're very handy! Just showing a bit of progress!

dino246gt Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 Looking real good! The most important part is that you're having a blast with it! Great kit isn't it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JollySipper Posted June 26, 2022 Author Share Posted June 26, 2022 Thank you, Dennis..... Yes, it's a GREAT kit! The most fully represented model kit I've encountered..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JollySipper Posted August 10, 2022 Author Share Posted August 10, 2022 I've gotten a newer computer recently, and had no way of showing the pics of my progress. I've gotten a memory card reader today, so I'll attempt to post the paint job that I've given this...... I've only seen one of these cars in green, I kinda like the way it turned out. Thanks for lookin' in, and comment freely! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JollySipper Posted August 13, 2022 Author Share Posted August 13, 2022 Thanks, Anton man! Here's some more progress on the body......... Working on the trim, now. There's supposed to be more black trim around the side windows, but I couldn't figure out how to do it cleanly, so I just skipped it...... Hope you guys enjoy!

mrm Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Looking really good. The color is really nice and it suits the car. Very BMWish. I like your interior and I think cutting the side glass was a cool choice. One suggestion if I may. Paint the rear headrests grey like the rest of the seats, it would look way better IMO. This model has surprisingly good detail on th interior doors for a Fujimi from that era. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JollySipper Posted August 14, 2022 Author Share Posted August 14, 2022 You know, I thought about that earlier on, painting the rear headrests like the seats, but for some reason didn't...... You're right tho, it would look better. 2 hours ago, mrm said: This model has surprisingly good detail on th interior doors for a Fujimi from that era. It's an Enthusiast Models kit, from that series....... This is my first EM kit, I hope I am doing it justice....... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattilacken Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 Nice work on the trim. Also think they seem like a pita. Will make my trim Al black, because I am sinister, and I have never worked with BMF. 😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JollySipper Posted August 15, 2022 Author Share Posted August 15, 2022 Thanks, Anton! Foil isn't that difficult to work with........ One way you could learn to work with it is to use it to mask the trim for the black around the windows. It does an excellent job masking things...... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I use more BMF for masking than for using the actual foil. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowlife ! ! Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 Great job TJ ! I'd love to find one of these again, the last one (from years ago) I mounted on a pro Stock chassis, they fit great ! Then there were so many spares left over to use on other projects ! Yeah there are hundreds of pieces , but I think it's one of the best detailed kits available. You're looks terrific, great job so far 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funkychiken Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Fantastic paint job and the chassis looks great 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
