only things to do are painting the window trims, painting the black on the clear parts (allthough i don't know how i should da that), painting lamps, waiting for the new wheels to arrive and then putting all together.
oh and sure, polishing it :)

thanks guys. it's nice to see some positive comment.
sadly there are some bubbles on the wing and down left on the front. i think those on the front can be fixed but those on the wing ... i don't know if i can fix them. if not i'm gonna leave the spoiler off :D on the next model i'm gonna let the primer dry a day or two longer than now (ca. 3/4 of a day)
i hope the new wheels arive tomorrow.

It's looking good! I think the colour is a bit flashy, I'd try a little darker, but you're the man :biggrin:
Keep up the good work, and keep us posted.

sad to say this but i fu**ed up the kit :(
while trying to blackwash the doorlines and painting window frames, all things messed up, everywhere are scratches, when i glued the wing on the paint melted ... and i found many bubbles and blobs :(
next time i'm going to buy some modelling stuff i'll buy a new can of ts22 light green, and then strip the body and repaint it.
until then i'm starting another kit... hope that turns out better.
wich one should i start?
porsche gt3 (would be black)
or honda s-mx lowdown (ts-23 lightblue) ?
both are tamiya kits and would be box stock.

Ouch, That hurts. I was really looking forward to the end product. Of course, these things do happen from time to time.
