IMO Cosmos still has the best supra but this one is second best in my book. IMO better than steves, steves has got to be 3rd.

Great job on the engine bay. Your engine bay has 1st IMO. :devil:

Great job! :bandit:

Wing is from the supra sard kit. I got one of those wings, haven't used it yet.

I think Subway's Top Secret Supra Takes the cake when it comes to supras. Second would be Cosmos. Third would be this. But this one does have the best engine!

Most of the better supras seen on AF are all differently built - this is one is awesome in its own right!! :)

Excellent job - love the engine detail. IMO, I'd have gone without the wing, but fantastic job nevertheless!!!

Thanks for all the comments guys. I think I put a considerable amount of work into this kit, and the results show. The finish is Silverleaf topped with Model Masters High Gloss Clearcoat #2936. Stunning results. As far as the mold lines go, I slightly overlooked it. But hey, nothing is perfect. Last but not least, I would like to think Tonio
for coming out to the Model contest today. He brought out some awesome cars and was really a cool person to talk with. My next project is................................................ .......................................:flash:

Actually I did. No really, I was going to build both cars one after another, but this car took longer than expected. The Sard Supra will be a street version with a GT wing(since I took this one).

I've seen it in person and the pictures are nice but they don't do this model justice! Russ has outdone himself! It deserved best of show but we won't go into that!:) Congratulations to SpoonManDos and I can now say I've met a fellow AFer! My day is now complete!:)

SICK! IMO, thats the nicest supra this forum has seen! I like the front splitters. Awesome exhuats too. Did you use Alcad?

Dave ESPI
03-29-2003, 06:08 PM
You sir get a 5 !

Awesome !.. the only thing that could make it better is if ya oxidized the tip and a little bit of the exhaust line !
try some transparent raw umber or Burnt umber..
that would make it "tits !"

awesome job d00d

Nice job! Love the wheels, color, exhaust, but rear wing is too big for the car, it looks 1/20 scale, and the front winglets look too small. :)

There are 3...actually 2,5 things that hits my eye:

1.The exhaust! This kind of elegant street racer needs an elegant exhaust. Not that bucket full of rice! :grinno:

2.Those front splitters just don`t look right.

2,5.That wing is huuuge! But now that I`m gettin used to it, it looks cool. :sly:

other than these 2,5 points: 10+ :iceslolan

Did you lower the suspension with SARD SUPRA kit, or you lowered it your own way?
The wheels are great on this SUPRA!
