Making of Fairlady 240Z

Hi!
This is Fujimi 1/24 kit.
it had vague panel lines, so I redrew all of them clearly.
cut off front side markers. I hate molded markers. I'll make clear parts for them.


Applied mixed maroon and polishing now.


I'm going to use Studio27's Recaro seats and Y-inter's Vitaloni mirrors.


Painted seats yellow and carbon look.

Looking great Kunta

What's the interior detail like?
I am assuming this is the same kit Fujimi boxed with 'rally look' decals for the Safari rally car?

interior looks cheap... can't expect like Tamiya's.:o
yes, Fujimi has S30 Safari version.
this kit has engine, but detail is sorrowful. so I didn't cut hood.

I really like your 240Z.
One question. Why did you paint the seats in silver first? Does it make the yellow look more lively?
