Fujimi Lexus IS / IS250 1:24 Sporty look W.I.P.

Hi Everyone !

I started this model three years ago, and few weeks ago I have decided to finish it. And it takes me two weeks...

The model is 'Box stock' plus some Metal Transfer stickers (thanks to 'koksik'). Interior was painted with Humbrol no.28 (the light color) and mix of Humbrol no.67 and semi-gloss black. I also used some silver from Testor/MM.

For body I have used Tamiya Spray TS-42 Light Gun Metall (two coats), but during last three years paint had become darker. For clear I have used TS-13 (also two coats). Body was polished and waxed.

Front bumper and grill - nice detailing front lamps, they look very realistic.


Interior: Two-tone scheme, without flock:


From a different angle:


One more time:


Almost complete - there is no side mirrors, license plates, exhaust mufflers and some small decals.


Some details:


Dunlop - looks great !


Does it look cool ? :


And.... chassis. I don't like masking. Exhaust is silver, painted with aluminium metalizer and burnt metal metalizer. With some very very soft wash.
I'm not so happy.


Side view:


Rear: (already with exhaust mufflers)


Realy is 'almost done':



.

Thank You for watching.

Michal.

Looks nice.
Be careful when sticking mirrors!
