Integra pic from Civics and Integras thread

Here is a sample of my over 1 year old untouched project. Have'nt done anything to this Revell piece of crap in at least a year. Body proportions are all off compared to the Fujimi piece. The body is too boxy and squared. Tried to reshape front and rear quarter panels. While I was at it decided to make a body kit. The lower portion of the stock body was too compressed ( doors and reat section not tall enough ). The rims are from a Revell Porsche GT1 kit. They're not gonna be gold when done-if I ever finish. Hood is just carbon fiber decal from Scale Motorsports. Maybe I'll leave it as a primered junker for awhile. What do you guys think? Finish or not?

I did want to kill it. I got frustrating at times and just kept putting it off. I tried to correct the body proportions a bit and got discouraged. So I left it as you see it for about a year. Gonna paint it soon since you guys wanna see it. Gotta job interview tomorrow. Dunno if I can finish right away if I start working. But I promise to finish or else P-man's gonna beat my ass.

Thank God your gonna finish it. Even if you dont like the way any model is turning out just finish it to see how "bad" it turns out .
I kinda like the colour of your primer for some reason.

Hey guys. I've been working on this thing a bit yesterday. Got the suspension all done and reshaped the rear end with styrene sheets and spot putty. Hopefully I'll have the body primered and the engine painted today. I'll keep you updated.
