The body color is Tamiya Mettallic Black with the Tamiya light gun metal fade closer to the bottom of the body panels. I will take better day pictures to show the color fading better.

The battery is indeed a F&F Supra battery detailed with model master photoetch tie downs and some decals representing warning markings. The size is very similar to the ugly "attached" battery that comes with the Mitsu.

The rims will be Yoko's AVS 5 rims with SAS photoetch brakes. May be I will do a hot to on "ICE" stereo system I am installing and a How to on the muffler....

Re: Re: Project Total ECLIPSE...

Sounds like a plan slk, can't wait to see it done, to bad amt had to screw up the amt kit, seeing as revells metal body, build rest in plastic has such a nice engine bay and pretty close to being just right for the turbo 2.0 4g63. Can't wait for those mufflers so I can order my R32!

The quality of your work done on this car is beyond belief, I know how hard it is to make meagerly made model look respectable, but you just made a stunning masterpiece out of this!

Good job, especially on all the little extra's you posted, nice detailing and eye for detail, I ll be watching this space.

Ciao
Olivier

Re: Re: Project Total ECLIPSE...

Slk, when your done with this you have to build the metal body Revelll edition, I admit that your work on this is magnificent, but just think if you built the revell car, I mean you might want to strip its paint (green and blue bird) for another color, but that's not the point.
