Finished: Ghostbusters Ecto1

The 1/24 Polarlights kit.
I decided not to use the red stickers for the fins and just painted them.
I used bare metal foil for the first time on this kit.








Nice kit, very large. I wasn't to expensive.
The buildingschematic give poor hint for how to paint the interior. Not to bad, since you can find some reference pics on Google and the rear windows are extremely dark.
All parts should snap in, so no glueing should be required.
But the small yellow tanks just fall off, the antenna swings around in its hole and the mast on the rear of the roofrack does not hold without glue, also the fins don't snap on nicely to the body so I filed them a bit and glued them on.
Only details I really miss: sidemirrors, I didn't feel like scratchbuilding them and there is a small mirror on the driverside on the rear of the blue spotlight, and a cadillac emblem on the hood. I just cut mine from some bare metal foil.

I hope you guys like it.

Next project: Fujimi JDM Honda Integra DC2
