Its time for the Faddest Car at AF
Yes, yet another Z-Tune, I wasn't going to do this, but I figured, why not
 . My goal is to actually finish a model this year and I'm off to a good start. Rear Brakes Done, used Tamiya PE and scuffed them up to look used  Subframe and I'm adding the missing parts   You can see them in this picture (thanks hiroboy)  Also got the suspension painted, but in reference pictures its painted different so I gotta fix it.  Still decidind on a color to paint it, don't wanna do silver. Thinking white, gunmetal, or lavender. Any suggestions?

Scratches look real! Maybe I should build one of these for the fun of it!

Looks good so far! I think lavender with green graphics, flames, or stripes might be cool. Anything you can do to make your car yours will help seperate it from the pack.
Keep it up, Mark

Re: Its time for the Faddest Car at AF
Those look awsome man, what did you use on the brakes? Just a fine grit sandpaper?

Re: Its time for the Faddest Car at AF
Glad your guys like the brakes, it was actually a really simple thing. I layed a piece of used 220 grit sandpaper on a table, put my thumb on the PE rotor and just twisted it. It came out really good, I'm moving along on this one, just need to get the body primed and pick up the color (will choose at hobby store).
The subframe is done, except for picking out bolt here and there.

Re: Its time for the Faddest Car at AF
I think the exhaust shows a lot of slacking on Tamiya's part, same with the missing suspension parts. Anyway, I'm coming up on the final stages of the exhaust. Finished the resonators and now just have to make two more pipes, paint and done.

Re: Its time for the Faddest Car at AF
Went to the hobby store today and picked up some Light Gray Primer, TS-29 and TS-37. I'm hoping to get this done within the month. Got the chassis primed and painted, just need to add the TS-29 and detail painting. Also got the body primered, gonna try and paint it went it warms up in a couple days.

Re: Its time for the Faddest Car at AF
Umm....a little update, chassis is 99% done, exhaust needs to be painted and installed. Tryed dry-brushing for the first time, think I did a pretty good job. I also like the Vspec style wing struts better then the stock ones. Next up interior and the body.
Some Pictures Chassis  Dry Bursh on Tranny and Oil Pan  Body with wing
