Well, this is my first WIP on Automotive Forums. Sorry in advance for my bad English Level and for the low quality of some pics.

That's Lancia Stratos Stradale from Fujimi Enthusiast model Series:

It's a reference from the second era of the serie, when Fujimi make Ferrari's and Lancia Stratos (the first models of the serie are Porsche 911 and Lambo Countach). Like all the EM kits the Stratos includes over 200 pieces (includes Group 4 Rallye pieces) and a beautiful reproduction of the Dino 2.4 Litres engine(45 pieces) That's the principal diference between the Hasegawa version and this. The negative side is the average detail of the front interior(the extra wheel isn't "real"...), not includes seat belts and the instruction's colour references are more complete in the Hasegawa Kit(includes all the combinations of Body and Interior from Lancia and Fujimi only includes the colours of the reference's unit)

I will paint the body in Lime Green (Verde York), the interior in Light Green and the Seats in Light Brown.

That's the body without spoilers and ready for the primer:

I wasted a lot of time in mold lines and the ventilation mesh.

The primed body:

I use Mr. Color Surfacer 1200 and Base White for the exterior and Vallejo Primer Spray for the interior.

Finally, the Block engine with primer and Mr. Color Duraluminium:

The engine needs detail paint, the piping, and the accessories.

I will post the progress. Thank you for reading.
