mrm Posted May 29, 2017 Posted May 29, 2017 This model is such a delight to build. Even straight out of the box. I bought three of these when they first came out and I hope they will rerelease it soon, so I can get at least three more. The color choice for this one was all my wife's. The model is basically everything outside my usual building style. I don't like them that vintage. I don't like them channeled. I don't like them with bare interiors. I like them with metallic paint. And rarely build anything out of box. Having said that, I had a lot of fun making this one and I am very pleased with the final result.
mrm Posted May 30, 2017 Author Posted May 30, 2017 Thank you guys. The frame and the character line on the coupe are actually very dark blue. They are both Tamiya spray paint colors shot through an airbrush. The driveshaft is something that I saw on 1:1 project.
TooOld Posted May 30, 2017 Posted May 30, 2017 Nicely done ! Building a kit right out of the box can be a very relaxing and fun change of pace !
espo Posted May 30, 2017 Posted May 30, 2017 Beautiful looking build. I like the Barber Pole Drive Shaft also. Your wife picked a great color.
D. Battista Posted May 30, 2017 Posted May 30, 2017 The finish and craftsmanship on this is outstanding.....!Love the graphics ....! I would like mine to come out half this good...Very cool...!
Dennis Lacy Posted May 31, 2017 Posted May 31, 2017 Clean workmanship! I like the color scheme and the painted belt line is a nice touch.
Snake45 Posted June 3, 2017 Posted June 3, 2017 Very, very nice! I can't wait till these reappear--yours is an inspiration and now I want to do one.
PARTS GUY Posted June 3, 2017 Posted June 3, 2017 like the color and the choice of the stock grille. That dark blue stripe is a cool idea.
