wow thanks all for your comments! Guess i should try to answer some of the questions that have been asked about the kit.
[list=1][*]seats? ...the S27 seats were purchased from mediamix hobby[*]decals?...the decals were printed from a graphic i got online that was "cleaned up" with photoshop. door decals were printed on white decal paper and the logo's were printed on a clear decal sheet. some of the graphics were made from scratch on paintbrush.[*]Paint job?the color of the paint is a custom mix of the basic Tamiya X6 and X8 (gloss orange & yellow) in a roughly a 4:1 ratio[*]contest entry?...Yes this is the model i will enter into the contest. [*]Gap in console?...the gap you see between the console and the dash is because i didnt glue the dash in and it was slightly off when i took the picture[*]first modified model?...this model is the first model that i tried to make that wasnt box stock but i have modified and completed other kits since starting the supra. i have a nasty habbit of starting several kits at once. this kit took the longest of them all. one example would be the scooby with opening doors.[*]to FOTW: the wing was perfect. but i have one request for you chris. could you post some basic instructions on your website to show exactly how to put them together? i know it may be obvious , but i would just like to know that i put the thing together the way it was designed. doesnt have to be fancy. simple is better. just a suggestion. thanks[*]next project?... not sure what is next on the list. Something simple probably since I hardly have the time to model nowadays. Im thinking about starting an NSX that I picked up off ebay recently. Nothing special. Probably stock rims since I have no replacements for them. We will see.[/list=1]
hope that answers most of your questions. thanks again for all your comments.
