Believe it or not, these are some items I have ordered in the last 3 years or so, or that I have brought from model shows in the states since 2012. I had used some of them and back to the bag where I brought them, because, I would like to pictures them, not just only to post the here, if not, to have a record of what I bought that lends me to what I have, because, sometimes I forget what I have in my hobby room. Well, this is what I have now available to use: Japanese power!! More goodies... Simón P. Rivera Torres

Hi Len, I remember also a sort of Italian restaurant just a couple of blocks away behind the hotel in the same direction of the all-you-can-it sushi restaurant. I remember the New Towsburgh model car club invited my little son and me after I took them to the greatmodels.com warehouse in Sandy, real close to the model cars museum. Remember that warehouse, Len?...That place was missed so, and so much last GSL by me. They moved to Mississippi, though. Simón P. Rivera Torres

Thanks Matt for your comments. I also saw your 507 and it turned out really nice, almost 10 years ago I built one, too. About this Z1 ans I described it was a box stock build, so in other words and as you told, I used what Revell gave me. As you know, most of the tme, to realize this kind of detail is more dificult, because, you can't use any aftermarket items. I had to use lots of masking specially in order to get all those flat black areas and the engine bay also requires lots of carefull hand brushing. The good thing is that, like I mentioned before, it practically doesn't has any fitting issues.

First of all, thanks to all you guys for your kind comments. Felix, everything fits really well. The only issue I had was that I had to make a plastic spacer with evergreen plastic to be placed over the right shock absorber in order to level a tire that was about 3mm in the air. Besides that and considering this is an almost 25 years old kit, this kit fits like a modern Tamiya kit, to say at least. Simón P. Rivera Torres

This is a project wich I was working on in a 11 months on and off time. It was painted with Testors Boyd’s Cheezoom Teal Pearl mixed with hardware store lacquer thinner and topped with Gunze Sangyo GX Super Clear III. Some wash and airbrush weathering techniques were applied on the exhaust system.
