ITR progress

I have finally started work on my ITR again.
I have re-scribed most of he panel lines to make them deeper, I pulled off the fake looking side skirts and rear bumper, and put a skyline front bumper on it. I am waiting for the lip to arrive from Kicker so I can stick it to the bottom of the Skyline front end and make it lower :smoka: .

Here is a crappy scan. (Don't worry, the scanning ends at christmas time when I get a Digital Camera :D )

And in case you are wondering, yes it did get hit by a bomb :finger4: , :hehe:.

:eek: ..Hate to sound to negitive towards your kit....but what the hell happened to it :eek:

Thanks for the encouraging commets guys.
I sat down for about 2 hours today with a piece of sandpaper, a lead pencil, some putty, some styrene plastic, and a exacto knife. It is looking more like a car now. I will take some scans when everything is dry, most likely will be early tomorrow morning.

My first putty job :( .

Cheers.

P.S: The reason why the body looks so grey in the pics, is because I gave it a coat of primer yesturday. So when I sand and fill, it is more noticeable where the putty needs to go.

ohh yeah, I almost forgot, in the scan, you are looking at the good side...:bloated:

Here is the update. I have started on the GFX (white styrene around the bottom).

The sides are now a lot smoother (if I can say it myself) than the pictures show.

Looks a lot better.Take your time and I know it will look great.:)

It is primer, well most of it.

And where the putty is, it is there to remove bodylines, kicker was right.

Nasty, but hey its all good Thug. Just give it time and patience, she'll be right.
