Supra, Turbo BMW, Turbo Civic, BM Camaro

[jgmodelcars]

Well Im going to be going for a while after finals, I'm spending a month working in Mass. and then I'll be getting back, so I won't be visiting AF very much for the next 3 months of summer, nor will I be posting many pics when I do visit because my home computer is slow. So I figured before I leave I'd give you all some things to see just what I'm working on. I hope you all look forward to the completion of some of these builds.

First: Revell BMW 320i, I added a bigger turbo and a small intercooler which will have a hood mounted vent for air flow, I scratchbuilt everything including the BOV. The body was nice until i ruined it so it will probably be an unsuspecting silver or gunmetal.




Next we have a 70 1/2 Baldwin Motion Camaro. Its a duplicolor color which i forgot the name of. Box stock with wired distributor. The interior will be two tone grey and black.





I call this next project Highway killer, because if you were to race this car on the highway it would destroy you. Its the tamiya MKIV supra kit, im making 2 bigger turbos than the stock ones and i've done what is probably my favorite bodywork so far. I extended and molded the sideskirts and modified the front quite a bit as well. Its going to be white with black wheels and one red racing seat with the stock passenger seat. I've paused this project right now as i screwed up the engine bay pretty bad.




This final project is more or less a rebuild. My brother had began this kit and painted just about everything so when he threw it in the parts bin i was schocked. Just recently i decided what to do with it. First I stripped the paint off EVERYTHING. I then decided to turbo it. So i scratchbuilt a turbo and massive FMIC. I then chopped up the front bumper so that I can mount the front mount intecooler and Im going to build it bumperless except for the little piece you see with the grill and holding the headlight in. It will have no back seats or center console. I will probably paint it flat black and it will have one racing seat as well. Im working on this Turbo Civic the most out of all of my projects right now .




I also hope to build these before summer is over, but we'll see how far i get and how busy I am with work :



So let me know what you think, which one is your favorite, and ask any questions cuz I'll be here all week, but not after that! Thanks!

Heh, forget the models, go have some fun!! We'll be here for ya when you return!

I like the bodykit on the Supra. Classy and agressive. I also wonder about the headlamps on the Civic... how did you get that pretty blue? Something deceptively simple, no doubt. That Camaro is gonna kick... You've got a heap of cool projects lined up.

Where in MA are you gonna be? I go visit my special lady up that way about once a month or so, perhaps we can compare notes?

Great job justin, the lights on the civic are so.... REAL

[jgmodelcars]

Thanks for all the replies everyone! You've all inspired me to keep posting more on this bored some how.... i'll try.

For the headlights: I just painted black on all the raised edges and on the little "bump" representing a bulb i a dot of tamiya clear blue. Same for the amber bit.

Willimo- I'll be working in southern mass through may and june. Then ill be back in CT I'll talk to you more and I would def. like to meet up anyone else in that area?

THanks again everyone keep the comments coming and I will try to get more pictures! Thanks again!
