Finished Pics of the Impreza WRX STi

Finally finished my second car model even though I realized near the end of completion that bugeyed subbies were indeed ugly. Anyways, this is the 1/24 Tamiya curbside kit.

It was built box stock, and primed with Krylon white sandable primer. The primer was wetsanded with 1000 and 2000 grit, washed, and dried. 2 light mist coats of Tamiya Chrome Yellow (TS-47) were next laid down over a period of 20 mins. 2 wet coats were then sprayed on in the following 40 minutes. Paint was then polished and waxed.

Enough talking, on with the pics!

Well, only my second car model, I've built some other stuff too. Anyways this car had to be stripped 6 times, undergoing 3 color changes until I learned how to paint without making a mess.

:iagree: Look perfect even the panel lines are done well. :smokin:

Truly amazing! I'm digging the panel lines and Work rims!

Are those door handles molded or are they painted on? They seem to stand out quite a bit.

But aside from that, very nicely done.

Looks awesome man. Keep up the good work.
