Just thought I'd share my first model with you. I decided to make a replica of my real car after seeing Steves excellent job on his. The problem is nowhere does a facelift FTO, so I had to convert a pre-facelift model
I've very nearly finished the front end work

Just needs a few more touches and a good rub down before painting can start

All of this was done with putty. If I ever have to do this again I may use stylene!

Red, For a 1st model, you are doing really really well :)
The Fujimi FTO has loads of mold lines down each side, so make sure you sand them down well, or they will show through the paint.
Can you post a photo of the 1:1, to get an idea of what the finished model will look like.

Just a quick update. Today I laid down the primer and have put it back in the bubble to harden.
This is how it will stay for a week, so I'll be working on the interior
