Suzuki Alto Mock Up Shots 4/10

[RodneyBad]

Well I haven't done any building in a long while so I thought I'd start off easy.

Suzuki Alto

Out of the box I already goofed.

Got all Primed up and forgot the SideSkirts

Trying to decide on a color.

I would go with some new testors laquer or a HOK paint. Nice start.

I really like those wheels. This would look sweet with some riveted flares. Cool project!

HOK Paint??

Thanks for the smartcar, it's bigger than the Alto

Flares would look good over those wheels.

but they only come as wide and wider and those are the wide ones on one side.

I'm going to keep this one simple and brush up on my painting

and photography

sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo??

anything new?

[RodneyBad]

I manage to put the skirts and rear wing on.

Primed (Plasta-kote) sandable primer.

Seems to work well with out crazing

I dug out some paint.

Dupli-color Cranberry purple. (auto Spray)

And

(had to buy all new paint)

Needs more chassis paint detailing and then I'll weather it. (covers up alot)

I Will do some colorsanding and clear coating.

Or clearcoat and then color sand (then again, it wouldn't be called colorsanding, would it?)

guess I answered my own question?

Right behind you Nick

Guess I should paint the poor guy one day.

Only had him for 10yrs.

Don't even know where he came from.

BTW: the front airdam is perty strong too.

"O" I also black washed the wheels.

That helped the factory wheels look better.

I have a racing one coming soon..

Just getting my feet wet on this one..

I never knew Dick Landy drove Suzukis??????

[RodneyBad]

Okay, I'm actually getting something done.

interior

Shot with a Buff Beige by Scale MotorSport Faux Fabrix.

The down side is I'm not quite sure how or what other color to use to Hi-lite

the interior.

There are no Door panel details so I'm trying to think of what to do.

How to two tone the seats.

With Black on the thigh and shoulder supports?

[RodneyBad]

Right now I'm using a Dark tan to simulate colored Plastic on the rear seat back.

Front seat

The paint gives it a rough texture.

looks like Fabric or No-Slip tape (Rough in texture like 120grit sand paper)

easily to paint over and use for a bed liner of sorts.

Or a rough undercoating..

im tellling you speed this vehicle will be wicked fast ha-a

faster than the mach 5 ha-a

yes ha-a, it is powered by a 3 cyclinder engine ha-a does 0-60 in 9 days ha-a

[RodneyBad]

Getting closer to actually finishing something.

Still needs some more detailing work.

I masked off the inside of the rear side windows for the black.

masked off all the outside window trim (what a pain)

and roof line.

BMF'd the lights to paint.

Hopefull I can finish it b-4 I move

other wise it might be 2-3 months b-4 I start building again.

Nice! I like it. The Twin Cam decal makes it sound real macho!
