Cool so far. What color is the purple?

hi blubaja the purple was a custom mix of Tamiya acyrilic mixed until i got the shade i liked.

i don`t like this purpple color, the body kit looks very nice

juanmi there is no body kit on this model unless you mean the rear spoiler and wheels, the spoiler is from aoshima spo com parts set no:120 and the wheels are mr model mirage mm4003 the wheels have been gilded gold centres.
the kit is the Subaru Impreza WRX STI no:231 from Tamiya.
maybe more pictures tommorrow.

I think the 2-tone scheme looks really good. Looking forward to more of this.

well here we are some more pics, got some detailing to do maybe even some foiling more pics to follow as and when i do some work.
the interior is again a custom purple and the other colour is xf 69 nato black all tamiya acrylic paint.
question should i do the windscreen and all glass as instructions or should i do what i am thinking a gold tint.

do i scrape off the mr models words from tyres or laeve as is?

take it off in my opinion, but the rest looks super.

That is really cool! I like it. I wish I had the skills to do this. I suck with tiny things like models.

the interior it`s really cool!!!

That's a really clean model you got there!

If you tint the windows gold, the details of the interior will be gone forever...I would leave it as is or follow the instructions to tint the back.

winston i did not think about seeing inside when finished have to think on that one would have been nice with the gold tint.

hi all just a couple of pics, just done a bit of foiling on the body.
not sure to leave the body as is or to put some decals on it?

maybe do the crescent in foil on the sides, what do some of you think
Danny

IMO, I don't think the yellow subaru decals fit your color scheme here, if that's what you are talking about...

Winston

right about the yellow decals so i am going to see what they look like in foil

the finished pics are in the completed section
