Scratchbiulders

[JOSE MARIA]

In referring to a thread posted by me about where to find strange car models , or wether it was possible to make them scratch , here I have found some pictures about two men who are /or were building models of the `85 Honda Quint Integra 3dr. / `87 Acura Integra HB. and also the `91 Subaru Alcyone SVX.Take a look.







The quality of the Q.Integra doesn´t seem really good but at least gives some inspiration.I don´t know the origin of the chassis which he used , it seems one of that nasty Fujimi´s , but this Integra is instead , based on the `83Civic that you can easily get.

The SVX page; loosly translated:

ARUSHIONE SVX 1/24 Resin model
They are 1 / 24 resin model under present manufacture.
As a resin model, it is a big thing.
It is said that the author, Mr. Yoshida, aims at the completion during this century.
As far as I know, there is no other model of SVX.
Although it is said that the plastic model of 1/24 was sold from Tamiya, first *ARUSHIONE* is already out of print, and does not go into a hand.

Then, in english:
"This model is still being made for trial purposes.
It seems to take for a while until being put on the market."

ARUSHIONE is supposed to be "Alcyone."

yes Jay , even translating the more simple Katakana gets a difficult task indeed.
