Mobil 1 NSX-process piccies

:) Here are some process piccies of my Mobil 1 NSX, hope you enjoy!
The model isn't finished, still needs major detail-working and assembly of chassis and interior, but won't be too long.

Oh, and a little query, if somebody has a spare decal for the rear wing, Let me know, it's a bit cracked by clear-coating.

Ciao Olivier

looks good so far!

Looks very good. The engine is great. Keep us updated.

Good to see a Belgian report! ;)

That NSX looks very good so far! Keep 'em coming.

Awesome! I love the incandescence on the exhaust pipes

great attention to detail, look'n forward to see more pix.:)

Nice!!! The engine detail is looking good!

Great work thus far!

Great work! Looks like it will be superb when finished!

looks excellent so far! i love seeing JGTCC cars being built. there really needs to be more made. can't wait to see it finished!

Looking good.:p

Another progress pic, put other decals on it (the mobil ones were crached by clear-coating) and clear -coated it again.

Now chassis awaits final touches and should be ready by next week.

Ciao Olivier ;)

wow looks buatifull' :D
that race number on the rear fender, did you trim it or it came in pieces?

V-slav: It came in two pieces.

All in all, I love this model car, it has to be painted in only one colour, decals are easy to place, you can easily get a neat and clean looking result, without having to spend too long on the little details and corrections to decals and paintjobs gone bad.

and the engine is very detailed :)

Update Time; Took some pics of this model.
I really want to have some room on my projects list , so I decided to give this kit a little boost

I know it isn't that great, but I didn't know how to use compound making this model.
Also the clearcoat cracked slightly the mobil decals, but no hassle,I tried to fix it with some paint.

Here's the model 80%complete.

A few pieces are held by masking tape but the rest is glued

Here's a pic from teh underside, where a clear spot is left to show a bit of the engine. I also redid the exhausts. They are re-chromed and will be weathered a bit, because I thought the first try was a bit over-done.

The thing I dislike is that all the engine detail will be hidden, because I wanted to have a nice fitting of clear parts, made with the "world's best canopy glue" so the label says. (solution 560).

Well done dude. Did you had problems on the '64' decals on the side panels?

Those details are greatz!
Hope you can find a replacement for the decals though.
Overall, good job of things!

It looks stellar. I'm very pleased to see one of these NSX's floating around. It's a nice break from Supras and Skylines.

Not that there's anything wrong with Supras and Skylines. :angel:

Great Job!!!! I was surprised that you decided to re-do the exhaust -it didn't look over-done in the pic. What paints did you use for the pipes originally and what did you do in the end? Any more close ups of the engine..... it looks sweet!!!

Nicely done:cool: Love the crome job done on the engine:D :D :D
