Honda Integra DC-5

This is my new quick project.

It's a very simple Fujimi kit with no details at all. So i'll try to make the best of it without adding a lot of details. Just a basic build.

The kit wheels looks like sh*t and are way to small. So i needed replacements. I found these Aoshima Blitz Technospeed z4 wheels perfect.

After scribing out the panellines and some putty, I sprayed some grey primer.

For the paint I used Silverstone II from BMW.

Added a few decals, and used some thinned smoke paint for the panellines.

The wheels in chrome are awfull, so i stripped the chrome and painted them bright green with Humbroll paint. Added the decals and painted the wheelnuts and clearcoated them with 2K clear. I wanted a bit of HellaFlush style :)

Meanwhile the body is already clearcoated, polished and painted the windowtrims. I also started on the chassis and interior. So updates will be here soon.

Nice combination!!

And a new quick update.

I polished the body, painted the windowtrims and installed the windows.

Also finished the frontbumper.

I also finished the interior. I used some different Revell/Humbrol enamel paints because I want to get rid off them. I want to use an other brand in future.
I kept it very simple but used some different blue paints. I also used some blue flocking powder.
It's not as smooth as wanted it, but hey this was just a quick build :D

And I finished the chassis after some lowering and wheatering.

Now the body could be placed over the interior and chassis. I also mounted the frontbumper and thought why not glue the headlights in place?

I only need to place the rearlights and rearspoiler. I'll start tomorrow with that spoiler.

Kris.

You're making it look great! This kit needs a little love to make look good and yours is fantastic! The wheels have super great detail, great choice by the way, and the color is gorgous. Love the Louisiana plate, by the way!

clean work! is that very fine flocking powder? or how did you get it to be so flat?

When I first saw your wheel colour choice I didn't think it would work but all together it actually looks good...even without the spoiler too.

Nice!!!
