R5 Almost done pics

OK, these are a couple pics of the R5 Turbo's current condition. All it needs is: the windows, the lights, the grill, the decals, the mirror, and some clear coat.

Problem is, it's been in this state for 6 months now, and I still don't have any clear coat or red paint for the taillights. :(

Don't be too hard on me, it's my first attempt at a model in my post 10 year old life :D

There is enough paint on it, and I did use primer...the grey sections are just the dust that's collected on it over the past 6 months :D

WERE THE HECK YA BEEN DUDE?....HAVEN'T SEEN YOU AROUND FOR A WHILE.

The model is going to take a bit of cleaning and work to get finished....so lets not wait another 6 months for a update...lol

What's the colour you used??

Thanks for the WB, Warren :)

I just used black automotive spray paint from Canadian Tire :lol2:

Thats Black??????

under that lighting it looks more gold than black

Looks good to me. I'm thinking about building that same kit as a test bed for my airbrush :D :rolleyes:
Then we can have two black R5's in the gallery :D Oh well, mine won't probably live long enough to get in front of camera - I've never airbrushed anything, so this will be interesting, might take even longer than the now-somewhat-famous S2000. :p
I'm looking forward to maybe a couple of dozen paint stripping episodes... :D
