For those familiar with this kit, you will notice that the mounts for the fog lights and front grill are still intact. The chassis still fits to bumper in the same manner too.

Wooooooowwww....... Sweeet work Dude. Is this designed for the Tamiya Celica?

No other modeling company makes the new Celica, so I'd assume yes! ;)

Fantastic work again Chris

Hmmm, I'm not sure now! i've been struggling to just sit down and work on them properly, i always get caught up in model stuff. I will have serious words with myself and will endeavour to get most of them finished at the weekend.

Just a question, do you work over the stock bumper, or cut it off and scratch build a new one?

Cheers.

Once again you have done a stunning job on this kit.

Thanks for the comments guy's

I'm going to go for the R34 rims on this i think. It will also be a cross between the white and silver cars pictured on the previous page, it will be painted white (maybe with CF hood) but with the Alteza style lights from the silver car which you've already seen.

NOW AVAILABLE ONLINE (http://www.scaleautostyle.com/celica.php)

;)

chris :

R U going to make exhaust system too????

the body kit looks like needed dual exhaust setup....

here's my idea...Why dun you make universal Exhaust kits????

How about that?

I've cut an opening for an extra exhaust should anyone want to make one, if not it easily filled.

No plans for resin exhausts and mufflers at this time.

So do u think it will be done this week or next week?

Now I don't know whether I should do the S2k, 350z, or the celica. :confused:

:D :devil: I think I'll do them all! :( In a matter of time.




:( Sometimes mother nature can be your worst enemy. WINTER !!!

hey Chris just got my kit in the post today.

All I can say I sweeeeeeeet, I'll get onto this during my time off of work:D

Cool, can't wait to see it done! You may very well get yours finished sooner than mine coz i'm putting off building mine and concentrating on more bodykits instead - too many projects, aaahh!:D

Great job on the kit Chris. Keep up the excellent work. some day you can retire and be rich from your kits and spend more time building more kits.

Well, if you business really takes off, you may be able to have an early retirement. :D

cut off the front and rear today and fited the new kit.

The front and rear sections were a PERFECT fit (awsome job), the only problem I had was that the side skirts were slightly warped:( but with a little patients and a little putty they ended up looking pretty good IMO.

that may be something you may want to look at in the future.

Other than the 1 minor setback I am 150% happy with your work and will be purchasing more:smoka:






THANK YOU for rekindling my passion for modelling (BTW my visa card hates you:D )

Hi Chris,


:eek: Looks very professional !

When do you think your Skyline kit will be available?
What is it likely to contain?
Will you concider doing a trans kit, complete with exhaust, wheels wings, new lights........ engine? etc

...............Mmmmmmmmmmm Engine! :bandit:

Will you do anything for any of the Tamiya Porsches?

There is some slight warpage with those side skirts, I don't know how it happened but the masters were fine when they were made then when i went back to them one day both had warped:confused: Must be something to do with the putty used on them shrinking. However i wasn't too concerned about it coz i had corrected most of the warp in the molding process. The parts are flattened out further when they are taken out of the mold, still slightly soft, and left to fully cure on a flat surface.

You can see the difference here;

The skyline kit (r34) could quite possibly be one of the first to be released next year. Its the C-West kit (i.e. 'Blackbird' and F+F2 car) and progress has been going well as its the project i'm most involved in right now. I finished off the rear bumper last night and the way things are going i will probably get this done before the F+F Supra i'm working on.

I hope to post a teaser preview pic of the Skyline sometime soon!;)
