completed: FF Supra (56k warning)

first time posting my work here. i've built models in the past, but this is the first one i've built after finding this site. i have found this place extremely helpful and i'd like to thank everyone who helped answer questions that i've had. this one is built out of the box. comments, positive or negative, how i can improve etc, are appreciated.

That is the cleanest ive ever seen this kit built awsome work! :)

Defntely looks like some clean building. I'm not too hot on the color, but as I said, you did a really nice clean job and he paint looks nice and smooth.
I do give you props for the great photography as well.
Congrats. Nice all the way!

Hey nice JZA80, what is that big thing connected to the turbo since the exhaust housings aren't usually that huge? is it a heat shelid?

Euhm......improve? This is one of the cleanest F&F Supra's I've seen! Great work!

clean!!, that wing looks a bit big.

SEXXXXY :naughty: !!!

You have built that kit in good way, considering that this is AMT product.

Nice build of the F&F version.
Nice job on the interior.
I like the color, what is it?

thanks for all the comments. the color is arctic blue metallic by model master. it actually turned out alot darker than i thought it would be.

thanks, im not sure either.. lol, but it was provided as part of the kit.



the t-top and the hood are actually slightly warped. unfortunately i hadnt i thought about it till after i've painted everything. im thinking about trying to bend them by using hot water, but would that mess up the paint? i have a coat of future floor finish over the paint, i assume that would probably come off, but i could always reapply it. thoughts?

not sure on the top. i'd prolly just ditch it and say its a permanent open top. lol. this is a very clean build of this kit. i give you props.

Nice build, very clean. But the wing is a little much.

Cut him some slack about the wing; he only built what was in the kit, he didn't design the kit. Great work, man!!:sunglasse

i'd have to agree with tonio on that one. this was a box stock build.

You made this kit look extremely well. Built solid, clean, I think you should do another!

nice build, maybe outline the front headlights with a sharpie for more detail, i like the color.

the thingy above the turbos is a heat shield it was on the real car BUT the real car is a single turbo AMT used the stock twins and tryed to hide them but they did a ok job with it and as everybody has said just leave the targa top aside it was off 90% of the time anyways :)

I didn't mean anything to the builder it was put togather very well... If anything I was putting down the model it self.

thanks for the replies. i agree the wing is too big, but oh well.
