helios16v Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 This was the second build I did for a cancer research fundraiser GB. The kit was built without any aftermarket from Fujimi's kit. The suspension was modified for a lowered appearance, this and the scratchbuilt seatbacks were the only additions/changes to the kit. This was a first pass at a car/truck model in 20+ years. I struggled a bit with the paint finish, and in the end I'm still not all that happy with it. It came out ok, but lots of room for improvement. I figured this would be a nice kit to get my feet wet again with cars before I tackle some of my more expensive/rare/involving kits. I'd rather screw up and learn on a $20 kit than a $50-70 one. Needless to say, I'll be taking on a few more before I try tackling the FGT, Mk1 Escort, Mclaren GT3, or the Benetton F1 kits. On to the pics. The seatbacks. Cheers! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
