Hi!
This is Fujimi 1/24 kit.
it had vague panel lines, so I redrew all of them clearly.
cut off front side markers. I hate molded markers. I'll make clear parts for them.

Applied mixed maroon and polishing now.

I'm going to use Studio27's Recaro seats and Y-inter's Vitaloni mirrors.

Nice work so far, nice to see one of these on AF. :)

Looking great Kunta :cool:

What's the interior detail like?
I am assuming this is the same kit Fujimi boxed with 'rally look' decals for the Safari rally car?

interior looks cheap... can't expect like Tamiya's.:o
yes, Fujimi has S30 Safari version.
this kit has engine, but detail is sorrowful. so I didn't cut hood.

Hey kunta, nice work !
Could you please tell me what kind of tool you used to deepen teh panel lines?
I m having some problems too...

Thanks and keep up the great work!

I really like your 240Z.
One question. Why did you paint the seats in silver first? Does it make the yellow look more lively?

clean clean paint work!

Cychalen, that seats are metal material parts. first pic was taken before priming. ;)

Very Very nice...I have always liked those kits

Making me have to drag my Fairlady out......:D

This looks great. I'm not a big fan of the ZG nose cars, but this one looks too pretty to ignore. Keep at it.

Looks nice, can't wait to see it when it's finished.

Beautiful shine already!! :eek:

Did you use the mesh-method for the c/f on the seats, or is that a decal?

Jay and thizishkenny, yes I painted through mesh and applied clear coat
with airbrush then polished. it's very effective and useful method.
