 I've just come across the most wicked Celica I've ever seen!! Check out this guys work!! http://www.ai.wakwak.com/~kake-40/menu2.htm How the heck does he do those louvres? Can you buy stuff like that? Does anyone know of a transkit for a similar Celica?

Looks like he kitbashed some to get the result, but what a result! I love the side exhaust - that must have been really hard to scratchbuild! I'm speechless!
Might have been a transkit as well, I'm curious as to where he got the decals..

Ive been following this guy's work for a while now, his stuff is sometimes wild but very well done, the Celica's are the best. I first saw them on http://www.warachan.com/ , I was well pleased when I stumbled across the makers site some weeks later and saw how it was done!!!

 I just can't stop staring at that S2000~! Looks damn good! Not even, it looks FRICKEN good!  [im sooo jealous]  Just a question though, to those that stumbled on his step by step progress pics of the celicas or the s2000, what does he use to give the car the base shape at the beginning of the proceedure? Is that styrene strips? I want to do\try a similar custom job with different cars but it is VERY hard to get perfect symmetry. Just a question that I have asked F.O.T.W. once that I'd like to ask everyone, can it be possible to do a slight mod such as bringing the car's nose more lean and drooping with ordinary Tamiya Basic gray putty? I know its primarily supposed to be used for scratches or dents, but can it be used to do slight mods? Not anything extreme but just to be used to give the face of a car a more aggressive look. Is it any good? I have thrown in an order of Epoxy smooth surface putty on HobbyLink, hopefully i can do more extreme mods with that? Maybe side vents on my future projects. *Right now the FTO is really stalled, i don't really feel like working on it, its just on my work table in a clear plastic bag looking up at me as I am watching tv or playing pool. Right now I am priming my first car for painting since I just built it without paint [lanEvo VI]. I have the paint on the FTO and polished it nice and gave it a good rub with wax AND the chassis is all done, but the black-lining part is really getting to me! I tried Guiddy's method but it is too watery and it doesnt properly fill the small lines. I can't paint the windows either, its really nerve-wrecking to get the mask on perfect. Its really frustrating so I can't continue, maybe on a day I feel like it or in the mood. right now im still in school so I guess it will be pretty slow.
