Screwed up window clear parts
OK, I am so 'lucky' today as I screwed my Skyline GTS 25t Tamiya window clear parts !! It was unfixable even i try to sand it and polish with Autosol. So i decided to spray the window after primering it. What are you guys opinion. Will the model look wierd with black windows but with full interior details? Or i should use transparents papers and build them from scratch or build a racing car without windows?

Re: Screwed up window clear parts
Klutz: the tutorial looks excellent!
Cham: You can try scratchbuilding a clear piece, but it's easier to just order a new one from Tamiya (provided that there is such a service in Malaysia, I don't know). You can try to use am alcohol based permanent marker to paint the black edges on the inside of the windows. If you use a marker with a flat tip, you should be fine. I think it's much easier than masking and painting! I got that tip from ZoomZoomMX5, it works great.
