Hi all,
First of all, this car is not from me. I'm in a kind of modelingblock for the moment so don't expect too much from me for the moment.
It has been done by my best friend and also member of my club 'Marco' . He doesn't speak english so it's why I created a thread for him.
I'll create him an account here (as soon as he will know some words of english
) and his nickname will be Punch_DVC. And it's what I should use as avatar for him
So stay tuned for his kits because he does an incredible job (IMHO).
This kit is the 1/24 Toyota Estima Zeus from Aoshima. I has put OZ Opera's instead of the rims given with the kit.
So, let's begin with the pics.
As an Hi-Fi lover , he could not let the rear seats and he created a woofer box with sheets styrene:
Testfitted in the interior:
And with the body on:
Now, the places for the woofers and Amps have been cut and the carpet has been applied:
Body primered with Motip automotive primer:
Bumpers and spoilers testfitted before the primer:
The amps have been painted first in black before receiving a light coat of silver:
Now the interior is finished, he painted the seats with Winsor&Newton Oil paints (I teached him how to do), woofers and amps are also painted/glued:
The last elements and side-mirrors have been primered:
And now the body is painted in blue and some details have been painted/glued. I don't know the reference of this colour, all I know is that he took it in the Renault range of colours and he used a Motip automotive spray:
That's all for the moment. The car is finished but he has still not sent me the pics, so I can't show them to you. You'll have to wait a bit.
I'm very proud to show you his work and I hope you love it too.
Xav
PS: If you have questions, it's me who will answer them.
