Brudda Posted July 21, 2018 Posted July 21, 2018 First I would like to thank my friend Mark for the generous gift of this model. I cannot afford such models. A tamiya kit is pressing financial limits. He has givin other kits like this to our other club members also, so thank you Mark ,very much. The kit is the 1/10 scale DeAgostini Toyota 2000 GT. Was white repainted twilight turquoise. The paint is water born automotive base coat with a urethane clear coat. Hope you like.
smellyfatdude Posted July 21, 2018 Posted July 21, 2018 Sweet build, and the most delicious shade of turquoise I've ever seen!
maltsr Posted July 22, 2018 Posted July 22, 2018 Wow, gorgeous build, you did Mark's generosity justice.
Brudda Posted July 22, 2018 Author Posted July 22, 2018 Thank you very much ! The fit of the model is the best I have ever done. Only thing I had to do was enlarge the holes for the door hindges to float them for alignment. DeAgostini has some great kits , I would love to get the GT500 they have , but way out of my budget. Mark is the rep for DeAgostini for the USA and this car is going to be on their site in the future. He is going to video and take pics of the car this tuesday. It is the only turquoise Toyota 2000 GT model out there. Thanks again for the great comments.
unclescott58 Posted July 22, 2018 Posted July 22, 2018 A lovely model of the best car ever to come out of Japan (IMO). Beautiful.
berr13 Posted July 22, 2018 Posted July 22, 2018 Wonderful paint! As mentioned above, that color is gorgeous! Nice work!!
Belugawrx Posted July 22, 2018 Posted July 22, 2018 Mighty fine paint and an all around clean build Bruce ! Well done, Cheers
Dave Darby Posted July 22, 2018 Posted July 22, 2018 My guess is Mark knew you would do this kit justice. Beautiful job! I too love the color.
Nacho Z Posted July 22, 2018 Posted July 22, 2018 Wow!! Beautiful model! I'm with everyone else, such a great color. It looks right on this car. Great job!

da_ashman Posted July 23, 2018 Posted July 23, 2018 Great work!!! Love the colour!!! Hopefully he'll give you the GT500 to build after seeing this beauty!!!
Modelbuilder Mark Posted July 23, 2018 Posted July 23, 2018 Great looking model, readily can be seen as 1:1 at a glance.
Bainford Posted July 23, 2018 Posted July 23, 2018 A stunning build of a gorgeous car. You have done an excellent job of getting this thing together. And that paint colour is just mouth watering. Absolutely beautiful.
Dragonhawk1066 Posted July 23, 2018 Posted July 23, 2018 Fantastic job! That is a beautiful color and a very smooth and well done paint job. Everything about this car is absolutely stunning. I love the idea of building larger scale models, but the largest I have is a 1/16 Shelby Cobra that I might tackle next year.
