Icecelle Blue Facelift FTO

Just thought I'd share my first model with you. I decided to make a replica of my real car after seeing Steves excellent job on his. The problem is nowhere does a facelift FTO, so I had to convert a pre-facelift model

I've very nearly finished the front end work


Just needs a few more touches and a good rub down before painting can start


All of this was done with putty. If I ever have to do this again I may use stylene!

Re: Icecelle Blue Facelift FTO

Red, For a 1st model, you are doing really really well
The Fujimi FTO has loads of mold lines down each side, so make sure you sand them down well, or they will show through the paint.
Can you post a photo of the 1:1, to get an idea of what the finished model will look like.

Just a quick update. Today I laid down the primer and have put it back in the bubble to harden.
This is how it will stay for a week, so I'll be working on the interior
