Hey, everyone!, all thats left now is to detail the exhaust tips, and add the door mirrors!!....the shocks i added really hide that motorized look! -I remember the turnsignal lenses fitting perfectly on this kit, but mine are arched too much towards the front, so i will either dig out an older pair that i have, or flow matt black canopy glue into the gap to help conceal it....either way, it will still look killer!!

Interior time! -Photo 1; I didnt really wanna use decals for the guages, so i decided to use kolored pencils to detail them, then added clear gloss as the lenses....looks better in person. I got the seat buckles from a Fujimi Countach kit. -Photo 2; Painted the vents semi-gloss clear...the seam i added a cross the top added some more realism. -Photo 3&4; Something new i've been doing lately, is to kolor the ends of the buckles. I tried paint before, but it easily came off, so thats when i had the good idea to mix black acrylic paint with canopy glue -works Magic!!...dries fast, and has a slight height to it, that replicates the real thing quite well! -Photo 5-10; Its all coming together!...door cards...seat belts...interior light...shifter...peddles... -Photo 7; To hide the molded in door cards, i decided to paint the top edge of them with rubber.....now they are weather stripping. -Photo 11; These coilovers will add a bit more visual interest to the back end, and help it to look a little less "battery kit like"...just need to add the bolt heads. **I could have added a bit more to this build, but i've been feeling like i really just want it done, which is pretty rare for me to feel. I do think i still accomplished what i set out to do here, which was to just "tweak" the kit.

Thanks alot, bud!!.....its VERY close to being done now!!

A bit of an update here, everyone.... -Photo 1; This was my first time using MCG flocking....NOT impressed....this is what it looked like after 4 coats/layers/applications. Needless to say, i washed it all off, and used Kens Fuzzy Fur -MUCH better!!! -Photo 2; Didnt have the same kolor, but Kens covered fist time, and i actually like this custom kolor better anyway...
-
This really IS exceptional, Bud!!!....sometimes i brush paint the insides of the body too, but i usually mask it all.
-
This is gonna be an AWESOME build to follow!!!! -love this car/kit!!!...and i love the kolor you chose!!!
