Re: 1999 Acura Integra GS-R

Have any of you ever looked at a real 1/43 model? The detail is incredible.

You just have fat fingers.

I have looked at them, and their price tags which usually consist of well over 150 dollars. I'm assuming you're talking about BBR, Minichamps, and the like. I have an autoart 1/43 Murcielago and it's not impressive.

Thats why I agree... Seen the boards now, kids think some body filler with holes and paint is good. Body filler is for real cars too I dont knwo what they are thinking.

I havent seen a REAL 1:43 model, but I have seen a few other 1:43 diecasts, the detail was good, but not the greatest.

And as far as my fingers go, they arent fat at all, I like to refer to them as "big boy fingers"

Re: 1999 Acura Integra GS-R

Modifiers arent all bad, I see it as somewhat of a challenge to try and make a small car like that have some detail to it, plus they look good sitting next to a bigger scale when they're identical.

Not to say that none of you have skill, but I think it takes much more skill to modify something small. Though, It can be hard to modify the bigger models, smaller is harder IMO.

Which is why probably a good argument against doing modifiers. I have yet to see anyone with enough skill to modify them well (if it even can be done).
