krazyglu Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 Another Aoshima kit pretty much box stock with the exception of shaved door handles and license plate holes. This is a older build so the quality is not so top notch haha ,but I'm glad I hung onto it. All comments welcome.
Poncho-Power Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 not a fan of the dropped look but either way the paint is nice...i would really like to get this kit one day!
nybuilder Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 Love the drop and how the window is rolled down. Nice touch.
Gregg Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 I like that Bluefin started selling them with the Left Hand Drive dashes. Nice build. Still have a few of them in the storage to build one day. One was finished, but have to repaint it. I like the shaved look, may have to do that also.
krazyglu Posted September 28, 2011 Author Posted September 28, 2011 Thanks for all the comments fellas....this is one of the kits with the adjustable suspension Dave and now that you mention the brakes its kind of sticking out like a sore thumb ha ha. If you have any of these Aoshima kits hold on to them as they are no longer being produced. As far as the dropped look....well that's pretty much my life.....1:25 or 1:1 it has to have a low stance Thanks again guys
RodneyBad Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 Good looking Lexus Paint looks great and the Ride height looks right. Ya don't need Brakes.. They only slow ya down.. Whatcha mean that Aoshima aint being produced anymore???
Tonioseven Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 That particular "Luxy" series of kits is discontinued for the time being. Similar to their wheelsets, they do a run for a while then it may be YEARS before we see them produced again.
jdmfan Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 love the stance . the lower it is the better it looks
mookie Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 Man you built my dream car and in the color I want. I am planning on getting one and that is exactly what I would do to it. Wonderful job.
Dr. Cranky Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 Nice work. I like it. It looks like it builds up into a beautiful model!
krazyglu Posted September 28, 2011 Author Posted September 28, 2011 Dang Micheal yours looks stunning my friend....I need to learn to BMF to really bring my cars to the next level. I love the chrome trim as that's what the 1:1 car has and that color haha was actually the first color I sprayed it.....then I decided to shave the handles and go with a gold Javier man that is pretty much awesome I created your "dream Lexus"....feels good to know other people like your style and execution. Antonio nailed it on the head and while you can still hunt and find these particular kits online they are not cheap by any means....50$ plus no thank you. Thanks again for all the positive comments guys...It really inspires me to keep building....and to keep getting better.
krazyglu Posted September 28, 2011 Author Posted September 28, 2011 Yeah It may not be perfect Micheal ,but its the first thing that makes your kit pop out over mine...not that either is better or any style is better than another. I just see that trim and It looks like a real 1:1 car. I did see where the front should have the chrome trim like the side ,but the fact that you did the sides and windows is awesome man. I have read where some guys apply the foil first then paint and lightly rub the paint off of the foil with thinner. Either way on this particular kit it would really really tough so hats off to you for pulling it off.
