Tks for visiting i´ll try to keep it up to date.. comments are always welcome!!

nice paint job. I like the how you used gold as the basecoat instead of silver.
keep up the good work!

Looks brilliant already!

Looks very cool Cris!

Nice colour!!! =D

beautiful paint job, the model already looks like a million bucks.

Candy Apple Red HOTTT!!! Lookin nice man. Keep up the awsome progress!

Very nice paint job!, those rims look great on it too :sunglasse

wow great colour the paint looks perfect. keeep up the good work. Sure cant wait to see more pics of this one

What red did you use?
is it a tamiya colour?

very beautiful done. i Love it!

nice paint job :DD
anyway
i dun really like the front embleem intergrated with the body
it's wierd
fujimi or hasegawa?

Sick paint. Def. needs different rims though. Go GOLD!!!

My Eye!
The paint is sooo sweet!

I also like the Evo!!
I think my next project become a Fujimi Evo VII

OMFG..this is one of the nicest candy paintjobs ive seen on a model! are you a pro painter orso? damn this looks great man!

are you gonna switch the rims? some gold Volk TE37's or CE28N(10 spoke) in gold will look great on this model.

Very cool paint job :) CE28's would be nice.

Very nice paint....wheels are a nice pick for it

Fantastic color and paint job !!!!!

Where did you get those rims ?

Bye: Robi

kyuuketsuki - No.. it´s not tamiya. This paint is used for painting motorcyle here (Brazil) i´m not sure about the brand but i guess is DuPont.. i´m sure u can find it in every good automotive paint store

cham2020 - About the Emblem i´m not sure too!!.. i put BMF as the pics below.. but i guess i´m gonna work on it..and..it´s a Fujimi


arknok784 - Good idea.. what about Z4 with center gold and border chrome.. i guess it will looks nice.. :naughty:


bkvj and Hiroboy - i tried CE28 later than the pics.. and it looks very good!!.. i´m considering this option.. do u guys have any pics of evo with this rims??

Robi J - I got those rims a few months ago at www.hlj.com.


Tks for all comments guys.. just a few updates..cause the reveillon i couldn´t work too much on it..

Just front an backlights and BMF at Mitsu Logo and also Mr Model Mesh Grill painted on black (www.mrmodel.com.br).

I´m not too sure about the orange lights.. i had place the BMF just behind the lens.. i guess i got to change it.

Tks for all and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!,

wow....now the embleem looks just nice !!!! you did a nice job
mostly i see the builts , it just feel wierd....

anyway, i love the fabulous profound rims :D

This looks hawt, Cris! Love the color, really nice! Emblems look good too. Umm, for the rims I like the Z4s or the Model 5s....

Keep it up!

Definately go with the Z4's. Great job so far.

I have to say the Z4s look hot! Nice paint job.

I'm going against the crowd, but I think the Z2's would look good gold with crome lip. Either way this thing is gonna be SWEET!

WOW that paint is simply amazing!!! I reacon the Z4 wheels look good. Waiting for more progress.

Thanks guys!!..

I love the paint, absolutely beautiful!
The whole car is looking very nice now! The GT wing looks great!

Wow, this rims, and wing is very good choice, and the weathering under the car, is looks more reallistic!

that colour really suits that car !! wel done man thats really good i like it alot lol !

sweetnes! I would love to eat that beauty! Very nice collor! Keep it up!

Nice colour, nice built! (I really like the undercarriege!!) Can't wait to see the finishing product!

What kit is that? Might want to move the exhaust tip a little away from the bumper. On a 1:1, it will melt the bumper for sure ;)
