Janne Herajärvi Posted September 15, 2018 Posted September 15, 2018 Hello everyone! Here is my latest finished model. Its Hasegawa BMW 2002 tii. I had bad luck with painting it, and after 2 times of stripping the paint, i started to make some patina look, and leave my show room clean and shiny plans for some other project. I used lot of detailing parts from differend aftermarket shops like Scaleproduction and High light model studio. I also made some scrach building like inner door panel for driver side has only "skeleton" left with handles. Tiger seats are hand painted with Tamiya colors. Roof rack is from Gunze Sagnyos Karmann Ghia, and i made those wooden parts from balsa wood sheet.. Model is weathered with Tamiya weathering sets, Vallejo color washes and some oil colors. besides white painted front fender, all dirty and rusty white areas are actually weathered and matt clear coated white plastic. Yellow tint in rear side window is made from Evergreen sheet. Some decals are prited by myself and rest are from decal sheets i have here and there.. Finnish licence plates are printed on photo paper with my printer. Now less talk since my english is not that good, and more photos of this BMW with thousand and one stories.. oh and feel free for comments and questions what you might have about this build.
Belugawrx Posted September 15, 2018 Posted September 15, 2018 Absolutely beautiful Janne. Somehow I think its a good thing the paint wasn't good... Love the tiger 'skins' Cheers
Lovefordgalaxie Posted September 15, 2018 Posted September 15, 2018 Impossible to say you had problems with it.
Luc Janssens Posted September 15, 2018 Posted September 15, 2018 very nice! anyway, I've noticed Hasegawa released another variation of this kit, this time a 2000 tI, with hubcaps
FabbricaP Posted September 16, 2018 Posted September 16, 2018 Great build! Really like the seats and wheels!
Jonathan Posted September 16, 2018 Posted September 16, 2018 That is excellent! My favorite build of this kit so far.
89AKurt Posted September 16, 2018 Posted September 16, 2018 Everyone else builds shiny models, so I really like what you did to this! I have this kit, not thrilled about doing the window trim decals, did you Molotow pen or Bare Metal Foil?
Kit Basher Posted September 16, 2018 Posted September 16, 2018 That is awesome, Janne. I bet it does have a thousand and one stories, and a few more after they drink that case of Budweiser!
Janne Herajärvi Posted September 16, 2018 Author Posted September 16, 2018 Thank you everyone! I think its first time im happy when my paint job did not came out good.. lol Kurt: i used Bare metal foil for window trim..
Phildaupho Posted September 16, 2018 Posted September 16, 2018 WOW Did not expect this but really cool.
Gramps46 Posted September 16, 2018 Posted September 16, 2018 I am amazed with what you were able to do with this model.

GlueTube Posted September 17, 2018 Posted September 17, 2018 Well done Sir! I especially liked the subtle detail/weathering on the rear bumper. You have a great eye! Regards Brian Kroon
