It has been almost a decade since I built car models. Well, this is my latest build, a full custom Tamiya BRZ.

Thanks for the encouragement guys...it wasn't easy to get back to modelling after a decade...I will try to get my modelling mojo back...meanwhile I had great fun learning to build dioramas last dec...and acquired more modelling skills and techniques...hope I can build more cars exactly the way I want.

Yes!
The car, too. But the background is terrific.

I love it! The fenders are awesome. I like the color matching intake, and the black roof really takes the bulk off the top and makes the waistline is super high. Way cool.

thanks bro...you are correct....this combination of high waistline and fenders will make the car looks fitter without looking bulky IMO....by the way, I took a pic when I completed the engine at that time...did not do the wirings...but scratchbuilt the entire turbocharger system including the intakes...:grinyes:
