RDean58 Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 "Itasha" means Pain car in Japanese. This could refer to the pain you feel when looking at it or the cost to your wallet after building it :-) Basically an Itasha car is one that is covered in pictures of Anime, Manga, and Pop star decals. Some look really cool. I think the one I built does. Thanks for looking!
DumpyDan Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 After I read what you wrote I had to take a second look at the car to see real or model. Looks great, nice work
CFMgarage Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 LOVE it! Well done. I like anything jdm so I always enjoy seeing any jzx100
stitchdup Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 Neat, I've never seen one of these built, and you did a good job
Davewilly Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 Very nice! was this a kit with the decals? I have one the the BMW Z4 GT I will build one day when I master decals a bit more..But I dont know if I have seen this car kit yet... But great job looks super nice!
RDean58 Posted February 25, 2016 Author Posted February 25, 2016 Yes this is an Aoshima kit with the decals. It may not be currently available right now but here is the box Thank you for the great complements everyone! I feel humbled.
GTJUNIOR Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 Not my taste, but strangely enough, I quite like it. Sure is different and very nicely built.
Davewilly Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 Yes this is an Aoshima kit with the decals. It may not be currently available right now but here is the box Thank you for the great complements everyone! I feel humbled. OK cool thanks!
RDean58 Posted February 25, 2016 Author Posted February 25, 2016 Funny, that is exactly how I felt when I first saw them. But the more I looked at them the more I wanted to try and build one. It took me a couple of years to get one but after I got started on it, it turned out to be quite fun :-) I do tend to stretch my modeling window so to speak, I've built 18 wheelers, customs, low riders, and even a "Donk" 94 Impala! Thank you very much for the complement!
RDean58 Posted February 25, 2016 Author Posted February 25, 2016 Oh, BTW, the anime series is pretty cool as well (and I'm 59 years old!) It is called "The Devil is a part-timer." You can get more info on it from Wikipedia if interested.(So yes, I've built the car and bought the DVD!)
