Yeah right, first model. Ok when are you going to tell us youve been really doing this for 10 years? :thefinger

Kidding aside-that is an awsome car model, very clean. I know I can't produce something that clean unless I throw it aginst the wall a couple of times. :tongue:

VERY KEWL KAR!!

First... good :grinno:
next...better :grinno: :grinno:

I don't like the Veilside S15 though.

You did a very good job on it being your first model :bigthumb:

You're kidding right? That S15 looks great! Practice makes perfect with modeling and photography.

Great job on that beauty, but.....yes but......I think you should lower the ride height a bit. Other than that it looks sweet.

i agree with nervestrikes very much you should lower it! :iceslolan

Very nice. Doesn't look like your first one. ;) Good looking paint too. :)

Stunning work for your first model.:bigthumb:

Very nice first model :thumbsup:
Remember they'll only get better from here!

thank for all the comments, the reason why my first model looks quite good is all because of AF hahaha :lol: been asking questions when i'm in doubt will keep trying.

The model looks great...one thing I do pick up on, mount the E-Brake handle the other way around :smile:, good job on your first model, great paint...looks great...things only get better from here

Good job on the 1st car! Only suggestions I can make are maybe some panel lines, flat paint for the seats, and it appears you got some polish some of the panel lines. :)

I can't believe this is your first one.. way better than mine... ( I sucks anyway.. )

Changing the hand brake the other way round and give a lowering, it will be perfect.
You have steady hands and overall, very good job! :thumbsup:

nice job
u need to lower it a heap though it looks like a 4wd! hehehe..


fujimi have done the worst job EVER of reproducing that front bar... it looks squashed, way too short....

Pretty good for the 1st model. Keep up.

I'd suggest using a masking tape for the window frame. It's not that hard to do.
1) Find a good masking tape, such as Tamiya, and apply roughly on the groove. If tape is too strong, apply on your skin to weaken it.
2) Follow the grooves with a toothpick to make sure the tape is not lifted, and cut along the line with a sharp (preferably new) blade.
3) Carefully remove the unnecessary area, so that you don't lift the remaining tape. (Follow the line with a tooth pick if necessary.)
4) Hand brush or spray paint the frame with semi gloss or flat black.
5) Follow the groove with a sharp knife again to separate the black paint and masking tape, and carefully remove the masking tape.

hahah did that, but left the masking tape overnight and tons of marks were left on the body. Spent lots of time on restoring the mistake i make and was too lazy to redo the window frame again. but then thanks for the advice.

:bigthumb: Very nice first attempt keep it up and take onboard the feedback you're getting

Thats really good for a first car.
