Here are the pics of the completed model. It still needs 1 or 2 small decals, but I don't have them for the moment and I didn't want to test your patience any longer :smile:

I'm absolutely thrilled with the result! I think it must be the best model I've ever built! And I've been modeling since 1970...

Looks great, but I think it would look awesome if you have the "GT Four" on the sides of the spoilers highlighted a bit, wither with maybe smoke, or filled in with black, or a light gray for shadows.

I have considered that, but since the top half of the spoiler didn't fit very well on the bottom half, I had to sand quite a bit off the bottom half, and unfortunately the text is almost completely vanished. So there is hardly any line to fill anymore. And I didn't feel strong enough to scrape the text any deeper...

Great build, have to give some props to the transkit, as well. Seems it had nearly everything you needed, no?
Again, great build, I'd love to see more like this in the future :).

Hi,
your progress thread was very interesting, the model is just great !!!
So - what´s up next??????? :-))
Micha
I started building the 2004 Impreza from Tamiya, but that build will be the subject of an article in a modeling magazine, and therefore I am not allowed to publish any pictures of the model before the article has appeared...
But I'm sure there are plenty of other guys who are building the same model and who can show pics :)
