Completed 1/25 Revell 93 Civic Pearl White

[Shinichi]

I had a thread on the start of this car a while ago but i cant seem to find it.

anyways simply, this was built pretty much OOB, using Duplicolor pearl white with tamiya pearl clear on top. the mirrors are cf'ed and so will be the hood, when i reorder some carbon fiber decals. if anyone can tell me some websites that sell cf decals using paypal that would be great.

the taillights seemed to smudge but i had already glued them on when i noticed.

anyways i think i'll repaint the yellow on the bumpers cause i hate them. thanks for looking and please advise on improvements







next on the building list, this:


painted in the right colors of black and silver/chrome. can anyone guess what it is?

oh yeah, the tape on the exhaust in the first pic is there because the glue was drying and the pipe kept falling off before the glue dried

How much adjusting was required to get the ride height it's sitting at?

Very sexy, clean build.

[Shinichi]

thanks!

ride height believe it or not was like that. i expected some adjustment but it came together pretty nice

I'm jealous of it, lol. But of course I own a 1:1 EJ, lol.

Sorry for experimenting with your picture but the color was a bit off. Great work!!

[Horrse]

looks awesome very clean. why did you paint the vents yellow?

[Shinichi]

WOW Tonioseven thanks. how did you adjust it? i tried to but it didnt seem to work. yeah sorry bout that my batteries were nearly dead so i turned off flash and used my table lamp as the light source.

i painted them yellow, thinking they were possibly fog lamps built into the bumper? after painting them i was considering just sanding them and filling them so they would be gone since i dont like them but i had already glued them onto the bumper. any ideas on how to make it look better?



and also thanks to everyone that has given me sites. i have ordered some more carbon fiber.

This is how I like them best, white with black hood & rims.
Nice work!

[ilovecaprice]

so cool!! very good job! really... Very very clean! I love that!

[circuitR]

nice honda, great colour scheme.
As for guessing your next project, the wheel looks like a mazdaspeed rim off a FD. So it could be a mazdaspeed FD.
