thx guys.

update and need help

minor update, no picture. just paint panel line(mild, not too cartooning i think),wetsand,rubb and a few wet coat. final wet coat actually.

help! after finalcoat still have mild orange peel, do i have to :
1. wetsand-rubb/polish-decal-clearcoat-rubb/polish-wax OR
2. decal-clearcoat-rubb/polish-wax.

thanks.

This is a very interesting project. Great work so far, looking forward to seeing what you do with the interior.

For metallic paints, I'd suggest (if it has a LOT of orange peel) to sand the orange peel down, apply one more coat of paint to revive the metallic, then decal, clear, wet sand, clear, wetsand, polish

for a decent non-metallic paint, I'd do decal, clear, wetsand, clear, polish.

I always put at least 2-3 coats of clear over my decals to prevent rub through. and wasting decals as well as paint.

NissanSkylineGTR98 : thanks, 4 the interior still thinking how am i going to do. not enough interior reference

rsxse240: thanks 4 the tip. that's really helpful.

really slow update. actually not really that excited to finish it! i've broke the A pillar again :( . @$#%%*

But anyway, done with the decal.

thx.

Looking really good! When do you think you'll be finished, if you don't mind me asking

Impresive model, One of the best Subi W.i.p.s i've ever seen, great Job!!

Hi. Hey, nice build. I love that STI model, but have some negative points I think... Like the modeled under chassis things, or the non direction parts. It's very strange in Tamiya, but well, 2 from 50 of their series ha ha ha...

Ok ok, to the point. Maybe someday I'll get the skills to get those results with the putty, but until now I want to know 2 things, he he.
- What wheels are those of the first pic? I mean... from what kit??
- Do you had to correct some parts to get the wheels at the edge of the panels??

And that's all. I always tend to write so much.

Thanks and CHEERS

nice work dude. cool clean machine

thx 4 the comments.
finish? within a week maybe, oustanding only the front canard.

Vladamor : 1st pic of 1st page? it is aoshima wheels from panspeed asimoto fd3s rx7. the current wheels are aoshima 19'' rays te37. yes need to trim the panel if u want to lowering it.

thx

You did a great job on this!!!

Kalam the front bumper looks sick. Great work. My only beef is that the chasis looks like its been thru the wringer. Maybe less weathering will help. Other than that a really nice job. Did I say I love the bumper? :) I might hit you up to make me some decals :D

What putty did you use?
